Serious Piece of Kit!

I recently got hold of this camera and now I know why Nikon themselves call it a"professional" camera. It's basically an F5 made to look like a normal SLR. It is bigger than your average run-of-the-mill camera to the extent that I would call it manly, robust! I have run several films through it and it can handle all the situations I have thrown at it. The autofocus is very fast and accurate. Because it is bigger than normal it feels very rugged. The ergonomics make it feel lighter than it is because it fits in the hand very nicely. I go everywhere with mine, well, you never know what might happen do you! If you are serious about photography and can afford it get one, you wont be disappointed.

Nikon F65 35mm SLR.
This is a fantastic camera, I use an F65 as well as an F80 and love the smaller camera it is light, robust and takes fantastic, high quality pictures, it doesn’t drink batteries and is simple to use. I use the camera primarily for ‘adventure’ photography and it works fantastically for action shots, landscape, portrait whatever. This is a worthwhile investment, don’t join the dark side, film photography may be old school but it’s worth the extra hassle

Technical stuff
Excellent specification camera full auto & manual controls, built in flash with anti- red-eye, slow sync etc., 3D matrix metering & centre weighted, depth of field preview

Nikon F65

A very nice camera. I have had mine for years and taken thosuands of photos. it is very reliable and works very well. But my advice is not to buy it. Spend the extra bit and go digital. It will pay itself off very quickyl. By the time you have bout this camera and then the continous expenses of film and processing, oh and the batteris cost £5 each and need replacing every now and then. You will be better saving your money for a bit and go ditital. Recomendation: Nikon D40 or D40x. Excellent cameras.
