Hey HedgeHoggers
I am tired of hearing about getting my camera sensor and lens cleaned! All the major camera stores and their manufacturers offer free cleaning & check. So stop paying 💰
for these services!

Would you like to find one in my location then? I certainly cannot.

If it's just a matter of spots on the sensor, clean the sensor.

My personal opinion is that it all depends. If you use your Canon more often then there is no need keeping the D70. If the D70 gives you good service then replace the rubber and have a technician to clean the sensor and replace the dry rubber in the mirror box. If the price is too high then you will have to dump the camera.
The D70 has 6 Mp. which will satisfy many of your needs.

Own a D850 which I love. But I still have and often use my D70 for those moments when I just want a quick shot that will never need to be a magazine ad nor a big poster. I can let my grandkids use it with no worries. And I never have to worry about someone stealing it.

remove lens , use hose end of a vacuum cleaner , hold hose 1 inch away , first with mirror down , then use shutter button for a 2 or more sec exposure , repeat .now , if you have loose dust / pieces on the sensor , they will come out .sticky stuff maybe .also clean lens that way .

Everything you read tells you not to do this , not even canned air because of moisture . Before you anything go to YouTube and watch some videos. I get mine cleaned professionally for $65.

I'd sell it to someone who enjoys repairing photo gear, and is equipped to do so. He / she can get either a repaired, ready to use, system, or a source of parts for other repairs on other cameras, out of it. Current prices on Nikon D70s-at KEH, etc-are not high enough for me to figure it would be worth my fixing it myself (time wasted), or my paying someone else to fix it (money wasted).
