I used a D70 for several years and still do so now occasionally. The small screen feels ridiculously antiquated now, but it's a very good camera, that I've taken some of my best images with. I've also sold quite a lot of images that I took with it, and had them in books and magazines, so it's a capable bit of kit. It's also pretty rugged (droped mine onto a rock from my rucksack that only left a small scuff on it) and the bateries last forever compared to my D700.
