For Sale FS: Nikon F3 HP w/MD4

[Mark Crabtree]

I'm house cleaning, and fundraising and have several items to list. I'm aiming to price these as bargains to move out things I just don't need anymore.

Nikon F3 HP body with MD4 motor drive. This is a well used brassy camera. It has worked well for me. General handling wear, various dings including one in the eyepiece ring. The only issue I have noticed is that the ISO scale has rotated out of position. The ISO setting dial works fine, but the scale is somewhere out of sight. Probably not hard to straighten out, but I haven't bothered. It is set for ISO 100 now.

I shot a fair bit with this late last fall and the old ni-cad batteries worked okay then, but I do not have access to a charger now. I'd recommend picking up a AA battery holder for the motor anyway; they are readily available for $10-15.

How about $65 plus shipping? US only. Payment by PayPal as a "gift". Preference to Apug regulars (I've only mention this as I've had some suspicious inquiries and offers in the past).

Has MF-6B Back

I forgot to mention that this F3 body has the optional MF-6B auto stop back. This has a tab from the back to the motor that signals the motor to leave the leader out of the cassette on rewind. I never really cared either way, but this was a a very popular option at the time.

Price reduced.

$50 plus shipping.

I need the space and wouldn't mind some $ for the photo budget (got my eye on something right here at the moment).

I'll take the F3 if still available.

And, hi Ethan; I hope you are still enjoying your F3 and found a nice 35 for it.
