One important reason why digital SLRs like the D70 are able to take better pictures goes beyond just the number of megapixels. Each pixel in the D70 is considerably larger than those in a typical digicam, even digicams that have 8 megapixels. This manifests itself in less noise and color artifacts at higher ISOs and in shadow areas. Also the lenses available for SLRs are far superior.
