 The best deal in 2006. October 16, 2008
if you can find this used, buy it! you can find the body as cheap as $300 in amazon. the chip on this camera is comparable to the D100 from the beginning of the millennium. or even better than. way less fringing and easy to use. i own the N70, and the similarities are 9to10. the screen is small on this camera, which at first is not a big deal. but why nikon did not allow us to zoom on the image? it is a mystery to me. yeap! though it has the magnifying glass icon, this would only allow you to one insignificant close up. the good thing about having such a small screen tough, is not worrying about battery life when viewing back. a problem with my d80. my d50 outlasts my bigger more confusing camera. again, if you are crossing over from a film nikon slr, this baby would be the candidate to replace your useless film. by far it has accepted all my lenses, including a manual one. it is professional enough to get you a job in the field.

This was a great camera back in it's day but it's long been replaced by the D40 and the D40 is on its way out now too. Why a camera that you can buy used for $300 is still listed as $1600 I don't know lol.
Super camera, more than just an Entry DSLR July 15, 2008

The D50 is a solid little camera, it's versatile, works great with different lenses, low noise even at 800 ISO, I won a betterphoto.com competition with a photograph produced by the D50. The pre-sets are OK, but if you want to draw out the full potential of this camera then go manual or shutter/aperture priority.
I upgraded to the D200 and now my husband and son are using the D50 for shooting, the D200 has a few extra bells and whistles but for an "entry" level DSLR the D50 is just perfect!
I never had any problems with anything not working, it all works perfectly, produces stunning colors and super sharp images.
Too bad they stopped producing the D50, what a neat camera! Can't go wrong with it! I have owned it for almost 3 years and have shot over 60000 images with it!
Too Bad! Nikon have to create D40 to beat Canon June 23, 2008

I have the D50 for 2 1/2 years now. I am still loving it. I also tested my friend's D40. In my opinion, it beats D40 on every count except the D40's bigger LCD and color histogram. D50 is a photographer camera and D40 is a consumer camera. Nikon is right. D40 sells like hotcakes. I buy D50 over D40 if I am buying an entry level camera today.
Great camera, too bad they stopped making them May 23, 2008

The Nikon D50 is no longer in production, but you can find them used online. This is a great camera. They say it's a beginner camera, but it has almost every feature someone that's been shooting for a while would need. Specifically, a dedicated button for ISO and White Balance give you easy access to two thing I commonly use. Only thing I wish it had was a Black and White mode and an illuminated display on top. Other than that, a great great camera.
