Sommigen konden hun kooplust niet bedwingen, anderen wel: zij wilden geen kostbare aankoop doen, voordat de Nikon D70 aan een grondige test onderworpen was door DPReview.
En daar is 'ie dan.
De conclusie:
The D70 is a significant step ahead of the EOS 300D in terms of build quality and feature set and a match, and in some instances better from an image quality point of view. It is a quality camera which doesn't compromise on build quality, feature set or image quality and yet offers superb value for money.
Nikon have achieved three major improvements with the D70, compared to the competition:
(1) They have improved the performance of the camera, with its instant on availability, very fast shutter release, superb continuous shooting and image processing speed and smart use of its buffer.
(2) They have maintained build quality while still delivering a smaller and lighter camera, the D70 doesn't feel much less well built than the D100 but is lighter, it certainly feels much more like $1000 worth of camera than the EOS 300D could.
(3) They have improved image sharpness and detail, while we could niggle about moiré the compromise between artifacts and sharpness is worth it, in many instances the D70 delivering more detail than our previous benchmark, the EOS 300D / EOS 10D CMOS sensor.
