Nikon F70


The Nikon F70 is an SLR camera formerly manufactured by the Japanese Company Nikon. Introduced in 1994, it is the predecessor to the Nikon F80. This camera is known for its unique user interface, which uses a combination of function and set buttons along with a thumb wheel to navigate the nested settings. It is quite distinct compared to other Nikon SLRs of the same era.
