Regarding the fellow who wrote that his wife chose the N70 over the N60, may I offer a counterpoint. My wife had a 6006, with which she took excellent pictures. She kept worrying about all the bells and whistles, so I took her to Pardees (Sacramento, CA, USA) to look at new (and used) cameras. We lined up her 6006, an N50, an N60 and an N70. We also lined up a Canon EOS A2, Elan II and a Rebel. To top things off, we set out a couple of Pentax entry to mid-level cameras. She took her time trying out all bodies with a bunch of lenses, mainly looking for handling qualities. When it was all over, she had chosen the N60 and decided to keep her Tamron 28-200. That's right, she chose one of the cheapest bodies, paired it with an after-market lens and STILL shoots rings around me. She doesn't know the difference between hyperfocal and hydorfoil - but she sure can take pictures. There's got to be a lesson here somewhere... Bill Cassing
