Some of the high end cameras are made to produce images for image editing software. As you move closer to the prosumer cameras, the "out-of-the-camera" image is sharper. Most point-and-shoot cameras sharpen the image "in-camera". I recently read this in an article. It showed how the cameras mentioned above (or below, depending on how you sort your posts) have varying degrees of sharpness out-of-the-camera. I will try to find that article and post it here.

If the sharpness is an issue, and the problem isn't with the lens, why don't you just increase the sharpness settings in the camera, or adjust it in Photoshop?

The reason no one mentions this camera is because it is impossible to read and pronounce.
"Can I help you?"
"Yes, do you have the Pentax asterisk-ist dash D?"
"What did you call me?"
"You know, the star I-S-T, uh, D. Pentax."
"Rap albums are on aisle 9."
"Nevermind. Can I look at that D70?"

they're probably oversharp. I had the same camera, showed every pore and hair on a person's face...not so nice.

P.S. the 10D isn't being manufactured anymore..

Like the man said: to get a better camera. I upgraded 'cause I needed more features. The 300D isn't for everyone, yes of course it depends on what you want/need it for. I would like to have mine again as a back-up, though.

Whatchu mean adjusted teh dipoter and now it's oh so pretty? Need info: diopter, does it affect autofocus? is that also on the D70? ACK! Don't want to be missing a big piee of the puzzle if I don't have to.

By the way, a thread at www.nikonians.com mentioned a few months ago in the D70 forum that a somwhat accomplished National Geo photog carries 2 Nikon D70's in his 4 camera (lean) travel pack. Something to consider in the scheme of things I suppose. Have to say tho I loved the dual prism focus indicator of my Dad's old Canon AE1.

Help! I am looking to step up to a DSL. I am looking at the Canon Digital Rebel and 10D and the Nikon D70 and D100. Everyone says the Nikons are great but when I look at the images they appear soft to me. Even after just doing a shoot with a $3800 Nikon D1X, I think the images I get out of my Olympus 5050z are sharper and cleaner. What does everybody think? Do the Nikon's have a soft focus issue? Can the older Nikon D100 still compete on image quality with the newer cameras?


There is more out there then just Canon & Nikon, Olympus E-300 should be something you may want to look into.
