Not intending to disparage. Though the list knows my views on the marketing approach and time/money invested to produce lower-spec'd D's instead of putting that towards an 'upgrade' model.

I would venture to say that no one could see the difference between a print resulting from the *ist D and one taken with the K1000...

The word "lesser" implies a disparagement.

The DS/DS2 bodies offers the same image quality and viewfinder quality as the D. They have fewer features. But to a person looking at the results, and who doesn't need/want/care about the D's additional features, they have advantages. No one can tell the difference upon seeing a print.

In the olden days, the same was true of a Nikon FM vs a Nikon F3. And people often disparaged the FM as being a lesser camera too. It was stupid then... Not much has changed.
