Can someone compare the K Minolta 7D with the Nikon D70?
Which is faster? Which viewfinder is easier to read?
Which do you prefer and why?

What lens do you have ?
D70 VF is quite hard to read, a friend invested in a DR-4 to overcome that
problem [before his D2x arrives]

IMHO you can't compare 7D and D70 as 7D is a more pro built camera than the
D70[s].
Both has 3fps speed .. so none is faster that the other.

If I haven't invested in Nikkor lens, I personally might prefer a 7D as
their AS technology is a God sent + their lenses are A BIT cheaper :)

Your answer is interesting. I'd like to hear more about
the AS technology. How does it translate to Minolta
7D performance?

AS is a feature of the KM 7D ... so I can't say much.
But do note 7D image are quite saturated.. so you might want to reduce the
saturation sometimes.

PS : I use Nikon D1H , not 7D nor D70.
