d2x noise vs d70 [Page 2]
Between ISO 100 and 800, the D2X is by far cleaner than the D70, no comparison.... For me the D2X AF abilities and uncompressed NEF amongst others make it better than the D70....

d2x noise vs d70 [Page 1]
But I still say given the same exposure and light, the D70 and D50 produce much less noise than the D2X.... Both the D50 and D70 produce much less noise than the D2X....

D70 vs D2H/D2X focus speed and focus problems
There is no doubt that the D2H(s) and D2X can focus much faster than the D70, but we don't know exactly what is the source of you current AF problem.... It remains to be seen whether the D200's AF speed will be closer to the D70's or the D2X....

D70 vs D2x dark area detail battle [Page 1]
I have already posted more than enough images comparing the D70, D50 and D2X, all of which I own and use.... Yes, the D50 holds detail better than the D2X or the D70....

d2x noise vs d70 [Page 3]
However, my experience is that for ISO at or above 1600, noise is better managed by the the D2X at medium resolution (comparable then to the D50 and D70 file size).... First 1 100% crop of the D2X and a crop of the similar place with the D70...

Nikon Forum: D2x VS. D70, comparison images
case that you'd set the focal length for the D70 & standard D2X capture at a longer focal... If I have a 500mm lens and D70, I can live with a 400mm lens + D2X....

d2x noise vs d70 [Page 5]
I don't know about D70 vs D2X, but it seems that the D50 has an exceptional DR.... Compared to both the D2X NEF and JPEG, the D70 had less overall noise and less chrominance noise in the shadow areas....

d2x noise vs d70 [Page 6]
But like to see the D2X noise at ISO 100 is less that D70's ISO 200.... So let's say you are using a D50 or a D70 or a D2X or any other DSLR in aperture priority mode....

D70 vs D2x dark area detail battle [Page 2]
Okay, so maybe he did say the D2X controls noise better than the D70.... From the example, it looks like D2X files will be much more difficult to deal with shooting in the dark....

D2X vs D70
If you need the D2X, with all it offers, then the D70 just won't do.... Anyone have any thoughts on how the D70 will stack up against the new D2X?...
