[BNM] [OT] Digital SLRs

[maryjaneansell]

Hi Iestyn

I just upgraded to the D80 after using and very much liking the D70 for 
a couple of years - the D80 is a very very nice step up but both give 
great results... I'm about to put the D70 on Ebay infact unless someone 
fancies it?? :-) If you have any questions about comparing the two 
though I might be able to help.

Cheers
MJ
