Mike, I took the camera into the shop today. I live in a podunk town and it is amazing we have a camera shop at all.

He looked at it and said he didn't have a clue what the spots were. That I would need to send it off to fuji and it would take weeks and he had no clue what it would cost but doubted it would be less than 100 dollars. Well, I don't have several weeks to be without a camera. This camera also has two different options for media storage, one for a smart media card and one for a flash drive? I think that is what it is called, well, something is wrong with the flash drive as well. I just don't think it will be worth the time and effort. I bought the camera used, it served me very well for a year and a half, so I don't feel TOO slighted. But this is still making me angry, I was getting ready to order that full set of Great Americans..now I think the camera might take priority.

The camera shop is a canon dealer and is very much pushing that Rebel on me. But from everything I have read at dpreview, the d70 sounds nicer. However, I have to wonder, do I really need that much camera?
