Default Nikon D70

Just getting a feeler right now, unless someone is really interested. I'm possibly looking to sell my Nikon D70 camera. It's less than 2 months old and is in perfect condition. It comes with the following -

Nikon D70 Outfit - $915
- Nikon D70 camera
- Nikon kit lens 18-70mm

Macro Lens - $Whatever is reasonable
- Nikon 60mm f/2.8d - great for macro or portrait shots, very nice clarity/quality


- Everything comes with boxes, manuals, cd software, etc...

Reason for selling?
I'm looking to get a Canon 20d, that way I can swap parts with friends who have a Canon setup.

Interested?
- send offers to oliversmith@gmail.com

Here's a sample photo --



Thanks!

edit: btw, San Diego residents get first dibs!!

Honestly, just something reasonable based off of what I paid. Here's a breakdown of what I paid...

$1188.26
- Nikon D70 camera
- Nikon kit lens 18-70mm

$420.21
- Nikon 60mm f/2.8d

I'm not looking to get what I paid, since I know that'll never happen, but I am looking to get a reasonable offer. I can also bundle the two items together if someone would like to take them both off my hands. I'll give you (or anyone else) a better deal in that case.

Lastly, anyone local who wants to pick this stuff up will get a free camera bag. It's the bag that I've been using to carry my camera in. It's pretty handy to have.

Not to HIJACK the thread, but I do have 2 extra lenses, not sure off the bat, but a 28mm and a 300mm zoom. I'll offer this at a great price if you buy his camera too.

Yeah, the Canon kits len (18-55mm iirc) doesn't shoot as well as the 18-70mm. The kit lens that comes with D70 is actually pretty nice and allows for a variety of shots (portraits, landscape, macro(kinda), etc).

If my friends weren't all going the Canon route I'd stick with the D70, since it's a really nice camera.

I have a few offers on the table so if you're interested hurry up and PM/email me!!

Btw, thanks BC!

My kit is the basic AF kit that comes with all the pkgs. So you might know ti better than I do. I do NOT know what street price is, but I'll let it go at 65% of it and if they buy your camera I'll let it go at 50% of MSRP. I think this is a good deal right?

But I will not sell the lens to those who wants to buy your cam, as a barebone. Unless it's the ZOOM lens.
