Old D70

9 years 5 months ago #407924 by Don Fischer
I got it about 2002. Took it out to take a few photo's of my pup. I like the feel of this old camera much better than my D5000. It had my 55-300 lens on it. I took it off and put on an old Sigma 70-300 I got in the mid 90's for an N70 I had back then. Shot on manual (M). It's much more convenient to change aperture and shutter speed with it than my D5000. Wish this thing had better resolution. It's a bit bulkier.

Yep they are mine. Have one more E. Setter. Took out that old camera and lens and remember now why I liked it so much!

First off, let me say these photos are really spot on.  Second, grabbing an old camera and using is plenty fun.  I bet you are still using it?

My old D70s is relegated to being in my car at all times with an older Sigma 70-300 lens on it... I have used it occasionally, but most shots anymore are either with my old D300 or my newer D7100

My parents had a dog like the first one when I was a kid.  "Beaver" was the dogs name.  Geez that dog was funny, they gave the dog it's name because he was always eating wood!  :rofl:


Love the shots, this took me down memory lane.
