I use my camera to do dog pictures too. I have Giant Schnauzers which are both active and difficult to shoot because they are black. If you have ever tried to...
Sharon - I'd highly recommend the Sigma 28-70 2.8EX lens. It covers a little less on the low end than the kit lens, but costs about the same ($319 or so) and...
I sold all my olympus equipment to get my Nikon D70, love it and have so much to learn. I still have a Nikon N70 and my favorite lens were my Sigma 105 macro...
The 1.5x multiplier won't affect the macro capabilities of your Sigma 105, it'll just be like a 150mm macro now. I have a Sigma 90mm macro 1:2 that I loved...
Hello Everyone I just got a D70 last night and just joined this list. I was looking at the Canon 10D but waited until this one came out to hold them both in...
Does anyone know what changes are made to the custom settings in the various digital vari modes. The overall effect is explained in the manual but it does not...
Thanks Eric. I have the same problem shooting the dog's coat. Mine are dark brown Irish Water Spaniels and I am hoping to get action shots of them in agility...
Morning Diane, Welcome to the group! Fun weather we've been having in the Springs lately, hey? May be better this morning, I see some blue. I have had my...
Welcome, Diane. You're going to learn a lot from this group. One of the best ways to learn is to continue to upload pictures and then listen to what others...
If you upload a photo to Yahoo, we only get to see it at a much smaller size, 400X266 is what I notice for most. You and the Moderator get to see it full size...
I'm just wondering, for those of you who have been previous Nikon film camera users and recently bought a Nikon D-SLR to use with your lenses, do you find...
Sharon, Can you give us some more specific requirements for a lens? What do you want to shoot, AF needs, macro, etc.? All around lens may mean different ...
... Please do not put photos in our files section. We have very little space on Yahoo, and we try to reserve it for the uses for which it is intended. When I...
Rick, Thanks for the info on the Epson site. Just tried it. Not too bad for free! 100M space! I put the Pikes Peak image up there as well as a bud from a tree...
the kit is not the answer. The lens provided within the kit is a decent lens. But you can do better, by buying a higher end Nikon lens or third party lens....
Sharon, Glad to hear you got your D70. I've had mine since late Wednesday but am also in Denver & have been waiting for the snow & rain to stop. Did some...
Hi Diane, You're going to really enjoy this camera. The little use I've given mine shows results that are as good as my D1x (which now gets some vacation...
I have the D70 kit and I also have the Nikkor 70-300/f4-5.6 ED/AF lens. I'm looking for something to do Macro photos. any suggestions? I don't want to spend...
I would recommend getting the Nikon 18-70 that comes in the kit. It is a superior lens, already highly rated in tests. Buying two lenses to cover the same...
Hi Mark Could you possibly upload a couple of pictures taken using the Tone Curves that you mentioned in your post. Thanks in advance EZModem (Terry) ...
Jon, I have an N70 and purchased my D70 when they first came out. Since getting the D70, I haven't even considered using the N70. I expect after a while I'll...
I sold the F5 & N90s. I still have an F60 & several manual Minolta bodies & lenses. Medium format has been gone for quite some time. I still have a complete...
Hi Tom, You have a D1x also? I have had mine since September 2001 and love it. Got the D70 for walks around town and when I want something smaller and...
Hi Scott, Either the Nikon 60mm or Sigma 90mm macro lenses would be good, I think. Others might have a better suggestion. Vern ... Vernon L Rogers Springfield...
