I found this clip when looking around the net for info on the Nikon D70. What do you think? is the info she gives good?

Thanks

The info in that clip is lacking.... to say the least......

Nothing she said was of any additional value over the typical specifications one can find on the side of the box.

Based soley on the fact that she referred to "Macro" mode as "close-up" mode, I would suggest dpreview.com for a more....informative review.

I don't think she mentioned "aperture" in that whole review.
As a Canon user who uses Av a lot I'm pretty sure the Nikon would have a similar mode.
She also failed to mention exposure compensation, fps, any magnification factor amongst other things.
Nothing she said was of any additional value over the typical specifications one can find on the side of the box as usayit said it!!
:mrgreen:

I don't follow, though I'm not familiar with the camera and the video doesn't play for me.

In most of the places I see "macro" used, "close-up" should be used instead. As far as I know, macro only applies when the magnification is greater than 1:1.

That was a very lame clip. If you want more information on the D70 read This or This.

She is listing the features and there is a "macro/close up" mode but she hesitates and fumbles out "close up mode" like she was scared to say it, puts the camera up to her face and starts running toward the camera. :lol:
