Nikon F4 appreciation

[Larryc001]

The F4s is unnecessarily heavy bu it does look really cool. Wasn’t it the creation of some famous Italian designer? The MB20 just makes it usable for everyday carry.

For those among you who think that the MB-20 is the way to go, here is a comparison between the F4 with MB-21 and MB-23 and an F2 with MD-2 and MB-2. The F4 IS heavier, but both are about the same in size as a sorta comparable F2. Now add the DS auto exposure to the F2 and the comparison becomes moot. The second photo shows the much smaller and lighter D600 with the two bigger, heavier cameras.

bonsoir
j'ai un nikon f4 en bon état
mais la mise au point semble être très mauvaise et l'indicateur de mise au point dans le viseur est toujours rouge
est-ce que quelqu'un aurait ce problème ?
Sincèrement

I have had my eye on an F4. Any buying tips.

If you're shopping Fleabay, check photos and seller ratings closely. I buy from Japan mostly as the gear is usually in pretty good shape and the prices are typically lower. I got mine in perfect condition from Japan from around ~$250 USD.
