Nikon SB-28DX on an F65.

I've found an SB-28 and an SB-28DX, bot refurbished and in the same
shop, but the DX will cost 20 EUR less and also seems to be in a better
state.

I've searched a bit with Google, but I've found only threads on the
cons. of using a plain SB-28 on digital camera, and some information on
the TTL metering difference between the two models wich get me in confusion.

So my question is: will an SB-28DX work fine on a F65, maybe an F80,
especially with care of the TTL metering?

Will it work even on a D70, in a near future?

I'm not a pro, so when I get bad photo I need to be shure that it is
just and only my fault, not the hardware.

Thanks!

The DX flashes will work fine on the F80 (or N80) using it's full
3D-Matrix TTL capability. Can't comment on the '65.

Not in TTL or iTTL mode, no. You'll still be able to use it as in
manual mode. The D70 requires an SB-800 or SB-600 for full flash
functionality. Firmware hacks may change this, but it's unlikely.
