    $1230 USD for a Nikon F3 eye level + 2 lenses justified?

    Great! Thank you very much! I think I'll settle for the 85mm.

    I figured this would be the first thing to come up.

    I'm still missing a good portrait lens that doesn't break the bank and is readily available. And a good, really small bag. I'll only be carrying the body with the 28mm lens and a portrait lens in that bag. Any suggestions for AI-S lenses and bags are more than welcome!

    I will definitely get a waist-level finder. I'll see if the eye-level finder is enough for me — if not, I'll get the HP one. I actually ended up passing on the 85mm f/2...

    $1230 USD for a Nikon F3 eye level + 2 lenses justified?

    Thanks for all the input! I was able to get the sellers down to $655, which includes shipping as well as import fees to Canada for the Nikon F3 Body and the 28mm f/2.8 AI-S (CRC) lense. Body: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/306494057040 Lens: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/326773083697 I hope this was a...

    I don't wear any glasses. It's the standard eyepiece, not the HP one. From what I understand, the HP is easier to look through from farther away, but the standard one lets you see more when you're close enough. That's also what I thought about the 85mm lens until I came across this video, which...

    Unfortunately I couldn't find anyone near me :/ so I chose to order directly frm japan.

    $1230 USD for a Nikon F3 eye level + 2 lenses justified?

    Are they really in mint or near-mint condition? The parts I’m looking at are actually selectively chosen from Japan. They’re in very good condition. I was only able to find some really minor scratches on the body in the high-res images—so from 10cm away, I doubt anyone would even notice it was...

    $1230 USD for a Nikon F3 eye level + 2 lenses justified?

    I honestly don't know the current market value. I haven't bought a vintage analog camera in quite a while... This is the set I'm considering, and I'd like to know if $1,230 USD is a justified price. The amount includes shipping, taxes, and duties: I would really appreciate any insight and...
