well, i just was looking at the d50 and d100 today. i looked at the d70 but didn't pay much attention to it bc i feel the d50 will do what i need. the d70 was a bit too heavy for me too. the d50 sat really well in my hand.

i'm getting the d50 with two lenses (a 18-55 and a 55-200, both nikon dx) soon.

i learned on an old manual pentax about 17 years ago and am currently using a canon eos rebel 2000 SLR (i've got 2 lenses for that too) for my film camera and a nikon coolpix 5600 for my digital. i'm unhappy with the coolpix bc of it's recovery time btw shots...slow shutter speed and slow writing to the card. i'll be getting a high-speed memory card with the d50 as well (which hastens write time btw camera and card, noticable mostly at higher shutter speeds.)

have fun!
