Now the D50 is now official, and the pricing strategy is evident - it seems that these three cameras are going head to head in the same market segment.
It seems that a lot of Nikon users are wondering if the D50 is cheap enough - the D70 is probably around 100 bucks more than the D50 due to heavy discounting and pending discontinuation, but given the choice between the D50 and D70, the decision would be a no brainer.
It would be interesting to see how the D50 does against the competing brands though. Canon has the megapixel advantage (8mp), and Pentax... well if NN's story is true then they haven't got a leg to stand on.
Thoughts anyone?
