The Nikon F70 (or N70 as it is known out of the U.S.) is an SLR camera formerly manufactured by the Japanese Company Nikon.[1] 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.
