I was on a trip in Singapore last week and shot a couple more test pictures with the D70. In the mean time I’ve finally managed to find an 18-70DX lens for the camera - thanks to a reader of dpreview

So the pictures in this post are all made with the D70 + new 18-70DX lens.

I particularly like the close-ups of my Thai diner (spring rolls and Singha beer…I admit the diner could have been better) and the night exposure shots taken over Suntec City area. The resolution of this camera is so good that you can almost see the people inside their rooms in the Conrad hotel across from me…

Another one that came out well are the aussie clowns performing in the City Link mall (you’ll recognize ‘em when you see ‘em). I’m quite happy with how sharp the camera still is in indoor situations and higher ISO settings.

Please take a look at the pictures under the link. I mentioned the ISO setting in the file name of each image. If ISO setting is not mentioned it’s iso200.

I look forward to taking more pictures with it, a very nice opportunity arises in our upcoming trip to Kathmandu in April.

Bye,

Marc

The camera I had my eyes on for a while turned out to be in the shops quicker than I thought.

This beauty is my first Digital SLR camera and it opens up a whole new world of creativity in photography.
