Does your D70 need to be serviced at certain periods

Ok back then with the old SLR, I had friends that would take there camera for a service, get everything inside cleaned professionally. Do new digital SLR need to go through the same process. ?

Cheers

Well sort of - but we do it ourselves, and more regularly than a "major service". Cleaning the sensor/CCD - or more precisely the low pass filter infront of the CCD.

As with all things, you can neglect it and it'll still probably give you satisfactory performance - however look after it well and you'll receive optimum performance in return.
