Film is King!

I own a Nikon D2x, but the Nikon f6 is far superior to use. The shutter is beautiful, and the whole camera is a superb piece of engineering. The auto focus is superb and the camera without the extra battery pack/grip is small and not too heavy. This is what photography is all about, forget the instant gratification of digital photography, the blown highlights and the hours in bridge and photoshop, get back to being an artist...treat yourself!

blessing in disguise

I had my new Minolta Dynax 5 stolen and with the insurance cash wanted to replace it. I hadn't been blown away by it anyway so asked advice from a different dealer who exclaimed"blessing in disguise love, you don't want a Minolta, you want the Nikon F65" and he was right. Sharp images, great exposures, no more faded, washed out skies and it feels like a camera - just heavy enough to feel like it's doing the job. All Nikon lenses fit on all Nikon cameras which can't be said for any other range. Chuffed mate, chuffed

Brilliant camera - but beware!

Absolutely brilliant camera. I had a salesman talking to me about digital cameras (I'm thinking of going digital but own F100), he said, it's not the camera body that determines whether you take good pictures, it's the lens you use. I agreed with him up to a point, the point being the F100! You can put a good lens on a Zenit and get a good picture, but you can put a very bad lens on a F100 and still get a brilliant picture! Digital still cannot touch film for resolution, so if you intend to continue with 35mm, this is the camera for you if you are serious about taking pictures. Beware on buying this camera though, digital cameras and people desperately trading in their 35mm equipment is making depreciation on these cameras enormous. Was offered £300 for my 14 month old F100 and it's in pristine condition.
