My local shop - Pauls Photo in Torrance - has a really nice N90s for sale (p.s great place to buy film and has a lab etc).
I was playing with it for a while and, man, what a great camera. They had a Nikon f100 next to it, and the first thing I noticed was the N90s has a metal door latch vs the plastic one on the F100.
The price of the F100 was $280. The N90s? $50. What an insane deal, and the only reason I didn’t get it is that I hardly ever use my F6 as it is.
p.s the one downside of the N90 is like the F4 it is not fully compatible w G type lenses, i.e lenses w/o an aperture ring. With those it can only be used in shutter priority or programme. But they can still be used.
Still tempted though, because, dood, $50? I mean sure I can buy five Leicas for that but still.
