We knew that sooner or later that Nikon was going to come out with some competition for the EOS Digital Rebel, Canon’s budget digital SLR camera, and while we heard some early rumblings about the D70 last month, we weren’t quite sure when it’d be ready. Well, Nikon officially took the wraps off today, and it’s about what we expected: a six megapixel sensor, an estimated street price of $999 for the body, and compatibility with Nikon’s lines of AF and DX Nikkor lenses. Though of course the real test will be to see how it compares with the EOS Digital Rebel.
