New camera, would like advice please.

Hi, just taken delivery of a Nikon D70 and Sigma 28-70 F2.8 lens. I ordered a Nikon zoom of a similar size but was sent the Sigma because "it's a much better lens". I would like to test the camera and the lens to make sure it is OK. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I bought the Nikon because I always used to own Nikon SLR's though I currently use a Canon S50 for snaps shots. I intend to get used to it before lashing out on telephoto of some sort to try nature photography again.

Mike
