Never mind all that. Based upon your recommendation (and reading),I just
ordered a D70 from Hasidic Camera Supply


Never heard of Hasidic, but hope you get everything you're supposed to get. I
bought mine at Penn Camera, locally. Probably didn't get the best deal around,
but the folks are sure helpful. Did you get the kit or just the body?

Ahh. Hasidic Camera Supply is an inside joke, I guess. Virtually all the
NYC discount photo stores, along with virtually all the diamond
merchants, are owned and operated by Hasids. Most are very, very
trustworthy people. I bought my wife's diamond on a "telephone"
handshake up there, and when I had it appraised here, it turned out to
be even better than represented.

I got the kit. The lens interests me, because 70 x 1.5 is 105 mm, and
that is my ideal portrait focal length.
