Have you used the *ist DS before?
There is no direct access buttons to common settings like white balance or ISO. If all you are going to use the camera for is a high priced point and shoot, that would be fine, but going through meus all the time would just be annoying.
Granted, the D70 is a more capable camera, but it's also just that. More camera. Man, that thing is huge compared to the *ist DS. But the new upcoming Digital Rebel XT looks to be a real winner for me.
May be a bit larger, but it is lighter than the *ist DS.
