Well, there's something bothering me: I was used to submit my photos to challenges and when it comes to fill the iso question I went back in to my photo folder, opened the information about the phot in question and to see what was the value. Know with the D70 there's no iso value. Is it because of the firmare that came in the camera? I've gess that the firmwar that came with it isn't the more recento one. How do I actualize it? Is it worth it, or in other way, should I notice any changes and in what?
Thank's

Nuno, do you have the Nikon Capture 4 software? When you open a photo in that program, there's a tab at the top of each photo labelled "Shooting Data" where the ISO and all other exif data is contained. This is the only way I know to obtain the shooting data for the D70. Hope this helps... |

Look on page 116 of the D70 manual and it gives the description for viewing the photo information in the camera |

Nikon View will show you the info as well (if you don't have nikon capture). |

I just got A D70 on Saturday. I downloaded an EXIF viewer from the internet and it works great except there is no ISO data. That field is blank. I downloaded the Nikon View application for free and it shows all of the data including the ISO. |

The reason that some apps do not show the ISO info is that Nikon elected to place in the "maker notes" section, which is not where it is usually found. Non-Nikon apps typically don't support extracting this information, therefore no ISO shows up.
Why Nikon elected to do it this way, who knows. I'm rather surprised thay haven't been forced to change it by popular demand though.

Does it bother anybody else that we can only go down to 200 iso? I'm dying for someone to tell me something that makes me feel better about that. The one detail I missed before purchase - can you tell?
I always know my iso by keeping it locked on 200 and keeping a tripod with me at all times. I really dislike the look of the higher iso grain and noise.
Nuno, you might want to redo the links in your signature. One goes to MY portfolio, and your Prints only goes to the home page of DPC prints. Least on my computer.

I would guess that Nikon has done that with the intention of trying to get you to use there propriatary software. Canon has done some similiar little tricks, like the big yellow question mark that appears in ZoomBrowser and EOS Viewer Utility. A simple rotation in another program, with no loss in EXIF or file size can make an image become the ?
There really needs to be more competition among DSLR makers for the consumer to get a better deal.
