It's still a lot cheaper than film. At least you can erase the bad shots and reuse the cards.

I'm getting ready to buy but just realized this camera has been out a while. Are their any rumors on when it might be replaced?
Man, who cares? Get it if it fits your needs and don't worry about it. I still have the N70 that I bought 12 years ago.
I have it on good authority that the new model will come out after you buy your camera. :biggrinjester:

The Nikon vs Canon debate is as bad the fight between the 1911 and Glock owners. :mrgreen:

:iagree: Great service. Their prices are good and they are honest about what they have in stock and what they need to backorder.

I'm in the market for a new digital camera and I'm thinking about going with the D5000 DSLR.

The total price with tax would come to $744 at Best Buy.

Do any of yall have any comments for a guy who's new to photography in general and wants a decent DSLR for under 800? (give or take a hundred)
All I have to say is ... :drool:
