i have only had my d70 for less than one year, and the up stroke on the toggle button (for changing focus point/reviewing images) is going.....

thank God for 2 year warranty

Dee,

Mine is only about a month in my possession and no problems .... YET!! But judging by the comments like this and BGLOD and so forth I possibly have some fun and games awaiting me.

I must say it is always a delight to see pics from you and do I hope that the loaner does not leave you uninspired to maintain your throughput.

Cheers,

SS WHile you may have other problems with your D70, it's unlikely you'll have BGLOD since it seems to affect only the early production run models (touch wood - bough mine in December :wink: )
