You'll notice that the butt of Eric's little joke was the D70, not his own camera. Now he asserts it was just a harmless demonstration of how the rest of us (he being above the fray, of course) are too quick to the defensive, too caught up in silly brand wars. Meanwhile, he's still taking little jabs at the D70 even in the mea culpa thread he started.

Cognitive dissonance my a$$...

Nikon forgot to include Noise Ninja or Neat Image as a bundled software with the D70 because they couldn't implement ISO100 from a CCD made by Sony :-P

BTW, did I post my original thread on the D70 forum ? No ? Why are you coming over the 300D forum then ? I never asked anyone from this group to come over and reply to my hocus pocus bogus thread :-P

It was a trap and yet this carries on... seems many don't understand the essence of it yet ?

To conclude, there's no flaws ! That blurred image was ... blurred with PS using motion blur in layer. The other 2 are as is w/ MLU, ISO 100, cable release and battery grip in portrait orientation. Which all of these 4 thingie can't be done with a D70.

This is called the return of the elevators...

...this thread was started over here in the D70 forum. Did anyone ask you to come here?

See that dead horse over there? Go enjoy your beating.

Well, I do care what they think, but my post was not well recieved.

perhaps, it´s cos this forum is a bit tired of the canon trolls and posts which came in after the xt was released. most people here are really avoiding a conflict.may be those 300d kids with their toy cam likes to play childish games like "i have this, u dont" and suck their thumb.

As u once wrote me, that same person is leading the whole herd still, the original poster (Eric) is usually not getting involved in this kinda stuff, may be inspired by that old HAG ? cud be.:-))

that´s nice of you.

I just thought some might like the opportunity to post similar
pictures that are NOT blurry like the one they have posted. I have
a D70, I shoot Nikon. But I don't have a picture like that to post.

and that blurry pic came out of a 300d anyway, and unless HACKED for getting MLU, may be 300 d delivers more blurry pics cos t´s mirror slap is more shaky though it has a tin-ny sound, and that now they found a way to lock up mirr and started basing d70. It´s all included in the canon EOS package, EGO+ licns to bash nikon, (both are FREE) marketing trend i guess.

(i too get a lot of blurry pics, but hands shaking i believe:-))

anyway. goodday all.

I believe that may be true. The Kodak 14n is based on the N80 body and it cannot have a legitimate mirror-up according to Kodak, so they have a bastardized one that is almost pointless. BUT they DO have a programmed mirror pre-release that works great. Maybe Nikon hasn't thought along those lines?

Eric said it himself: take it with a grain of salt/pepper.

Besides, he is right to say that the D70 should have MLU. Maybe
Nikon will propose a firmware update after reading his post :-)

Can't you think of a better way too spend your time? You are trying to make a point that those out taking pictures could care less about. I could care less what camera you use because you are a dumb@ss. This is the opinion of someone that didn't live on the forum today and took some pictures.

Nope not at all, I find it funny that some "genious" decides to compare the D70 with the 300D. Niether of which have MLU from the factory. So how is that Hacked firmware?

This exact same genious creates a thread that makes him the token piece for the posts that he claims he is making fun of.

Eric, I am not stupid, nor am I gullable, so please do not try to guise your slandering as a joke, as a profound message, or anything of the kind. I do find it insulting that you believe that anyone would buy that concept :)

Do you enjoy discrediting anything you say about cameras and photography as a whole?

Best regards,
Thomas

The object of the thread was more profound than this. The object of
the thread has nothing to do with MLU and ISO 100, or a cable
release or a battery grip... It's about to show how stupid we fight
over "mine is bigger than yours", "my father is stronger than
yours". Got the idea ?

You are backpaddling now... and it was anything but profound, it did not state anything that you are saying, but instead went on about MLU and ISO 100.

OMG! No MLU! What the heck, there must be a work around.

I haven't tried this yet but I have used this with an old Pentax SLR.

If you want to take pictures where mirror / shutter vibes are critical, it is usually the opening (lifting mirror) so, Use a rubber shock mat between tripod and camera and just use the self timer and set a long exposure (with a little time added) and hold a piece of black card in front of the lense until the click has occurred. You need a solid tripod and may need to experiment a bit with your timings

As I said, this is a trick used by film SLR users from days gone!

Also, why wory about ISO 100? This is a digital camera, if the images captured at ISO 200 are as good quality wise, does it really matter that there ia a stop difference. Many studio SLR users have been using Fuji ISO200 film for a long time! Why do people keep comparing differing technologies!

The D70 is a great camera!
