Digital SLRs are they there yet
Posted by: Rockingdoc on 21 July 2004
O.K. I'm beaten. Film is dying (well the labs are) and digital now rules the prosumer world.
I have a sack of Nikon lenses, so what SLR do I buy.
I was just about to jump for a D70, like every other photo-lemming in the world it seems, when a pro-photographer friend said it's image processing is a bit suspect and to hang on for something better. I can't afford the Kodak Pro (which he approved of ) at 4K.
So is he correct, is it still too early. I suspect this is the new PC e.g. twice the power for the same price each year you wait, and old digi SLRs will be worthless in 5 years.
Any views?
