thanks for the question ...
for the same reason why there are people posting pics taken with a D800:

Excellent photos, Jolly. I still use cameras of all kinds of vintages. They all have their personalities and quirks, but they are also all better at capturing the moment than I am.

My first DSLR too. I have bitter sweet memories. The kit cost me 1600 Euros only for the camera to die a BGLOD. Nikon's denial of the flaw until much later did make an impression.
Here is one shot I made with one D70 that I converted to IR (this died as well).

I still have two of them. Their Sony CCDs are serving me very well in some important experiments.

Now I have developed means and methods to get rid of the microlenses and the Bayer dyes without doing this sort of damage. Extremely useful.

Amazing, never noticed it !My first DSLR too. I have bitter sweet memories. The kit cost me 1600 Euros only for the camera to die a BGLOD. Nikon's denial of the flaw until much later did make an impression.

My first was a D70 but I had the nice idea to drop it from my backpack ... then it came the D70s which i found superior, a very nice camera.
Then the D200 ... D300 ... D700 and .... X-PRO1 ... lol that's not a Nikon

The D70 was followed by a D80 (converted to IR and worked very well), several D40x', D200s and a D300 (none of these died on me and were without any factory flaws). The D300 still works. Heavy beast compared to the mirrorless cams.
The D700 was an year too late, thankfully! :angel:

fun with CCD based Nikons .-)
wonderful CCD images, Jolly, Vivek and Rayyan :thumbup:
I had a D50, does that count ?
of course not much of a D70, but still a CCD sensor :angel:
