Sorry to ask as its probably been asked many times before. Which camera
would be better the nikon d70 or the canon 10d and when I decide to buy

one
of the above I am wanting two lenses, which would you buy as its a

minefield
out there as lenses are concerned, is there a website that does reviews

for
lenses, thnaks.

If you don't already own lenses, then you pick the one that feels best to
you.

In my case, it was easy to choose because I have lots of Nikon lenses.

Well,as an owner of a Canon 10D and 2 Nikon D70s,I think you are a little
misinformed! The D70 is MUCH more camera than the Rebel.It has many features
the 10D can not match.The 10D has a SLIGHT edge over the D70 in some
areas.Like others I would handle both cameras,and pick which one fits
better! The Nikons feel better in my hands.The Rebel is not in the league
with either camera!

If you're starting from scratch, then go with Canon. The 10D is a better
camera then D70, they're not even in the same class. D70 is an Nikon entry
level dSLR, such as Canon 300D. The 10D is a class higher - has a metal

body
(this really is important), and some advanced options.

Also, I would suggest waiting for the upcomin Photokina to see what will

the
new 10D mark II turn out to be. Also, it is expected that the price of 10D
will drop up to 25% once the new generation camera is introduced.

It is, but the 10D isn't the Digital Rebel. The 10D costs $400 more than
the D70 at the moment, even though everyone "knows" that Canon will probably
be replacing it soon; it's really in a different class of camera and it would
probably not be unreasonable to expect it to be better than the D70 in more
ways than it's not.

It sounds like you don't own either one. Its also funny
that you dis the man who has both, and who has noted each has its own
merits.

It sounds like you entirely missed the point that the Rebel wasn't part
of the comparison, that the 10D isn't the Rebel, and that he was talking
about the wrong camera.
