The purist in me craves all-mechanical cameras. The techie in me craves AF electronic wonders. I can afford to indulge both, so why not? It’s not like I want every camera out there. Just one (or two) of every Nikon F.![]()
I can certainly relate to both of the above.I think that you are undervaluing the worth of the F2 for professional work.
Sure, it's more difficult to use for action and moving subjects but people managed to do it with theirs for years on end.
It's my favorite camera. I feel I can do anything with it.
I love my F2 and Canon F1 New.
But the clock IS ticking.
I cannot read a label in a grocery store, or the text in a photo book without "Reading Glasses".
I have a few manual focus camera i need to sell. I have too many...still.
I wonder if i would not be wise, when i sell those, to start investing in some kind of 35mm SLR auto-focus system.?
Perhaps a Nikon.
The Ninon F100 gets a lot of praise here, along with the "lesser" models. My wife has a N80 or something like that. It works great.
I have also considered Canon. Their late model AF bodies seem to be a really good deal.
The EOS models.?
