A person "in the know" whom I spoke to recently suggested that the price of the DL is being kept artificially high for a while to protect dealers and distributors who have a lot of the DS and need to move them out before stocking the DL. Nikon is doing the same thing with the D50 - it's generally priced substantially *more* than the D70. As soon as existing stock of the D70 is thinned out, the price structure will become more rational. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
