Nikon D80/70s vs Canon EOS 350 D/400

[Mike Veitch]

D80 Jason... no doubt about it, as Spoon listed all the great qualities....

If you can afford it, get the better unit and wait for the housing...

If you don't want to wait and want the housing now.. D70 is easier to use than 350 due to two command dials which makes the switching of shutter and fstops much easier...

My mean concerns spend wisely; I need save some money for my second purchase rebreather unit...
What is your opinion? Nikon 70 and 70s is different units which want are advantages and disadvantages

D70s... its faster and has larger buffer... should be same price...
