ART might jump from canon

[alexromo]

I found a D70s and a D200 for pretty cheap and Ive been considering it

I was planning on purchasing a 5Dmk1 or a 7D in the near future, but I dont shoot video so..... still contemplating. I was going to buy a 40D near the end of this month too
Ive also had my eye on a 1Dmk2N for quite some time

the price for the 30mm and the 50mm nikon glass is really making me want to switch

might to Canon

I actually want a 7D for the video (currently own a 40D). I'd like to get into some little video projects.

Jumping from most any Canon to a D70 or D200 is not much of an upgrade, man.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard...

But then again this is a slimeball thread.

You're totally doing the "switching to Nikon" thing wrong here. If you want to do this, at least get a good Nikon.

i thought switching to nikon only means switching to a d700

 

[FryingPan]

The D200 was kind of a fail camera. I felt absolutely no joy shooting mine.

I've got a t2i...I'll probably wait and upgrade to ff in a year or two. The D7000 is tempting, I'd definitely jump ship for a d3/d3s.

I guess the real question is what Canon body you have now, there's no way of really telling if you'd be up/downgrading without knowing.

my bad i dont shit money like you do,the government doesnt pay well suck my balls

having a nikon body at all would give me reason to purchase nikon glass. I guess you didnt really read past the second sentance

well why is that?

yeah well i was thinking of doing that due to the more affordable/better quality 30mm and 50mm for the time being, but whatever

wanted to try d70s due to higher sync speed, d200 well my buddy had one and I liked the image quality

 

[SenenCito]

having owned a d70 and a d200, and now owning a d300 and a d7000 I have to say you're going the wrong way. those cameras are quite outdated compared to today's standard, the D200 is before the big sensor upgrade they made on the d300, you will feel the difference hurting you.

If you want nikon for reasonably cheap go for a d7000, you won't regret it
