My husband and I received this camera for Christmas and I LOVE IT!  We have 2 very active girls and it's hard to get a picture if your camera is slow.  I love the Nikon D70, because not only is the shutter speed fast, but it takes numerous pictures in a matter of seconds, so I can catch candid photos of my girls playing.  If I want a posed picture, the camera will allow me to take several pictures while everyone else is getting one shot.  The picture is very clear, it self focuses easy, you can get a close shot very quickly with just a turn of the lens in front.  I think that even someone who is not overly familiar with digital cameras could come to love and easily use this camera.  The only thing that bothers me about the camera is that you have to look through the viewfinder to take the picture (my old digital camera held the shot on the screen, so I could see exactly what my picture would look like when it was taken).  My father in law has this camera as well, and he can set it to his eye sight (he wears bi-focals and so setting it to his eye sight allows him to see the pictures more crisp than if he were to use my camera).  There just isn't enough words to say how great this camera is!
