Yes, but the adapters are, IME, painfully slow. They make snails look fast, in fact. The built-in readers (and USB2 CF card readers as well) are much quicker. By more than an order of magnitude. g.

It sounds like a lot of pre-release hoohah deliberately started by Nikon to spark interest, conversation, speculation... like this. Marketing ploy???

I'd consider a 2nd body, but it's too early to tell, we'll have to see where the D70S settles in the market, and what the D200/D100s/whatever brings to the table. Unfortunately the SD kinda kills the D50 for me, but it'll be interesting to see what its new metering turns out to be like.

Nikon and most other camera companies except Canon could not come up with a creative idea like yours Though it would be a real devilishly thing to do just when Canon is stealing sales on the low end. I'm back
