I owned an original D70, and was pretty happy with it. I didn't upgrade until the D7000 came along; I figured I would keep the D70 as a backup. Shortly after the D7000 came the D70 just died! Maybe...

Here are a few. Is it OK to include a Fuji XP-1 image?

+1 Same thing on my XP-1. Noticed a white pixel in middle of the frame. Fuji promptly repaired it, no questions asked.

Well I have come full circle. Actually took advantage of the suggestion on this thread to check Frye's for a new, discounted D700. My local Frye's had one open box unit, for $1709 +tax. I checked...

I have tried the combo of 50mm Summicron on my XP-1, just to see how I liked it. I found that, compared to my Fuji 60mm, the Summicron had a softer, less contrasty look that could be attractive in...

Well, the issue is that it isn't really a "budget" purchase. A used, low mileage D700 will cost as much as a new D600. And that's for a 12mp, five year old design. There are still new ones out...

I am wanting to buy a full frame Nikon, in order to enjoy using my legacy Nikkor lenses at their native focal lenghts. I've decided to skip the D600 due to all the oil splatter issues and the D800...

After reading your question I realized that I don't remember wheter the AF illuminator function is on or off in my XP-1. Checking it now I see that it is on, and must have been on when I took the...

Interesting that you did that. Made me go back and develop my RAW file (I shot fine JPEG+RAW) in Silkypix to see what I could do with it. I am a neophyte at raw development and only have the...

With all the noise about AF issues I had to share this shot. Using shutter priority set at 1/30 and auto ISO, I focused on the head of the Buddha; it locked on instantly. SOC JPEG, no PP.

How do you like the zoom?

By the way, the EXIF info on preceeding pic is incorrect, I was also testing my Tokina 11-16 dx lens with the same adapter and forgot to manually change the lens info. The shot is OOC JPEG with...

Fotodiox adapter, XP-1 and AI converted 1972 vintage Nikkor 105 f2.5.

I am going to wait for the next model. And then I won't buy right away, until any potential problems with that new model have been identified. Of course I can afford to wait, for me this is a...

I don't understand the shutter speed. What is 4/10?

It is Sunset Electronics, they are on Amazon.

A retailer is offering new, supposedly with USA warranty, 18-55 zooms for $599. Called them and they told me they were selling lenses from camera+lens kits, selling them seperately, so new, but not...

What exactly is "focus priority"?

"Sounds to me like you should choose another brand.  You will always have doubts, just move on."   I guess you didn't notice that one of the main reasons I want a full frame Nikon body is to be...
