Buying Guide
The last professional Nikon film SLR and often called the finest 35mm camera ever made. Records EXIF data to film border or memory card. Supports VR lenses. Check shutter count. Verify weather seals. These cameras were built to last and most have relatively low mileage. Premium pricing reflects rarity and capability. Worth the investment for serious film work.
