THE
CAMERA GRAND PRIX 2004
Singled
as the most outstanding still camera amongst 172 nominees released
between April 2003 and March 2004, the prestigious Camera Grand
Prix award was granted to the D70 by the Camera
Press Club of Japan in May, 2004.
| The
citation reads: "The Nikon D70 delivers a superior
balance of performance, price, and size. Despite being
positioned as a new popular-priced digital SLR model,
the camera is loaded with features that challenge even
higher priced products. It overcomes the traditional
weaknesses of digital cameras by realizing fast power-up
and fast continuous shooting, and earns special notice
for realizing response that is on par with 35mm film
SLR cameras while improving practicality and comfort
of use. Clearly labeled menu options make operation
easier for novices and combine with the camera’s other
features to make it accessible to a wider range of users,
thereby achieving a level where the D70 establishes
an entirely new trend in digital SLR cameras...."

D70 in August, 2004, as the Best Consumer Digital SLR
in Europe. TIPA is the Technical Image Press Association

EUROPEAN
IMAGING AND SOUND ASSOCIATION (EISA)
"The
Nikon D70 is a very affordable 6 MegaPixel digital SLR
camera, with an astonishing range of advanced features,
yet still easy to use. Combined with an excellent performance
in speed and continuous shooting, and with an image
quality good enough to satisfy even professional needs,
the D70 is attractive for a wide range of users. A sharp
1,8 inch TFT LCD monitor and a very good battery performance
add to the attractive sides. Looked at all round, Nikon
has managed to produce a camera that is unusually good
value for the money." |
