Ok...D70s body arrived today. Works just fine as said. Seller threw in extra battery but I also have CF card, another battery and charger...$86 AUD.

Not bad at all...IMHO. Nice pixel size...7.8um I believe, which is a real nice size.

I want to play with it for awhile (I've purchased a "D ring" to test it fully, I have no lenses for it in anycase) then when the DIY camera is finalised...it'll be relived of its Sony ICX453AQ sensor! Bit of a shame really as it's a nice camera.

Anyway you don't need a fully working body (like mine) in fact as said you can pick up non-working bodies really cheap and 99.9% of the time the sensors are just fine so suit this project well well.
