Bjarne, Let's talk Nikons! Sorry to hear about the theft. Whomever stole it will get their comeuppance: what goes around comes around. There are only two N/F70 versions that I am aware of: standard and the quartz date back version. The QD version has a panoramic mode also. Only pay for the QD option if you have a need. They are the same cameras otherwise. You will love the AF speed compared to the F601. It also is D compatible, drives AF-S lenses and has the same metering as the F90X. It is worthy of the Nikon label. As for glass, your budget may determine most of you decision. If you can spend the $$ for just one lens, IMHO the 35-70/2.8D (not the AF-S) would be my choice. otherwise, get a good prime. Best of luck.

I wanted to learn a bit about Nikon because I'm about to invest in new equipment (my trusty F601 just got stolen). What I really wanted to seehere was ideas, inspiration, cool judgement about which F70 I should buy. Instead it seems I have tumbeled into a religious battle. Please, this is unworthy. Can't we just get over it and agree that N is a fabulous camera?? and so is C! (Although I've never had the pleasure to confirm that personally) If you have any recommandations for me please do not restrain yourselves! My stolen gear was F601, 35-70 std N-zoom and a Sigma 70 -300 APO,Macro tele (good one!). Regards Bjarne Rementorp, Slagelse, Denmark >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
