D70 on its way....

[NewNikonian]

With the peek at the (possible) specs of D70 from Thom Hogan, It is going to give the the compettion a run for the money. Do you think it is better to sell the comparable DSLRs to recover some of the investment. :dunno:

before the D30, D60 story repeats.... :nono: :nono:

The (possible) specs.....WOW :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Heard ISO is from 200 to 1600 ?

A 20 frame buffer seems to good to be true, they'd kill the D100 with a cam like this.

spec looks good, but is the noise level better than D2H?
