Chris,

Get the D70s if you choose to go Nikon.

The Nikon D50 is a lot less of a camera. The lense mount is also plastic. The kit lense that comes with the D50 is cheap and if you were to buy the D70s kit lens separately it would be very $$$$.

CF is good as the media is cheap.

D50 is plastic mount? where did u get that info from?
i see metal mount


D70 firmware upgrade has most, if not all of the same features d70s has in terms of internals

hardware wise, d70s has wider flash, bigger LCD

but AF performance is the same

go with D50 if u dont have any media yet. the extra 400-500 u save from D70s can go towards a nice zoom lens

shot to shot should be 2.5fps using a high speed card
