Nikon D70s Digital SLR Camera
Based on the award-winning image quality, high performance and user-friendliness of the D70, the Nikon D70s offers several refinements that will further enhance your digital SLR experience. The D70s employs the same 6.1 effective megapixel, Nikon DX Format sensor that yields 3,008 x 2,000-pixel images that are suitable for making large prints. This should guarantee vivid colours with maximum detail and a wide dynamic range, while at the same time optimising the speed of file compression, memory buffer handling and near instant LCD display. With a power-up time of a mere 0.2 seconds, this SLR is basically ready to shoot when you are. Pictures are processed and recorded extremely quickly, and preview images appear on the LCD monitor almost instantly.
We found the D70s to have superb image quality and vibrant colors from ISO 200 to ISO 800. Even at ISO 1600 the image quality is smooth and extremely low visual noise noise. Its autofocus is extremely fast in bright light and still very fast in moderately low light, but it lags the competition slightly at very low light levels.
If you are into high-speed action photography the D70s is the real deal. With the ability to shoot a rapid 3 frames per second (fps) for a continuous burst of 144 pictures, you’ll will be able to capture every piece of the action. And with shutter speeds that range from 30 seconds to 1/8000 second, or up to a 1/500-second flash synch speed, you’ll be sure to have the flexibility you need to capture the action precisely as you want it. Best of all, the D70s employs the Nikon F lens mount for seamless compatibility with the comprehensive lineup of high-quality AF and AF-S Nikkor lenses that have long been favored by professionals around the world.
While the Nikon D70s has many features of a professional-level SLR, the camera also comes with many features that make picture-taking a snap for anyone. The D70s provides Digital Vari-Program selections that automatically optimize white balance, tone (contrast), sharpening, color, hue settings and saturation to best match the selected scene. Instead of having to worry about all the camera settings, you can have the option of choosing from one of several ‘modes’ – such as Auto, Portrait, Close Up, Sports, Landscape, or Night Portrait – that will deliver the best image for you according to the conditions. This means you can concentrate on capturing that special moment while leaving the details to the camera. And once you’ve taken your shots, Nikon’s PictureProject user interface makes image management, editing and sharing easy and fun. Simply connect the camera to a computer to automatically import pictures. You can also quickly e-mail or auto enhance images, run slide shows, burn CD/DVDs, and access other commonly used functions easily and intuitively. With simple drag-and-drop steps, you can organize pictures into separate collections and quickly locate any file by name, keyword, or date.
