Nikon F6 35mm SLR Film Camera Body Only

Best and Favorite Camera I Have Ever Owned

The build quality of this camera is ten out of ten. The autofocus performs better it seems than my Nikon Df and D750. The frames per second are almost as fast as my F5--it'll rip through a roll of film in a scary way. This camera feels incredible in the hand. It feels like a rubber covered block of metal--but isn't too heavy! I own many Nikons: F, F2, F3, F4, F5, Df, D750 and 35Ti, and this one even beats out my Df as the favorite. I only wish that it had the removable viewfinder like the other Nikon F cameras. Battery life is excellent; it takes the little C123 batteries that are pretty easy to find now. Do not hesitate to buy this camera. The interchangeable focus screens for this camera are plastic and a little clumsy to change out. I think the design is such that you're supposed to do it once and forget about it--not like the other F cameras with ground glass screens. I installed the "L" screen with the 45 degree split in the middle, which makes it very easy to manually focus.Read full review

Nikon F6 Film SLR

I love my F6. The F6 is the best 35mm SLR I've ever used.
All AF and manual lenses work fine.
Outstanding exposure metering.
Nikon is very proud of the quiet and refined sounds the F6 makes.
The F6 records and logs full EXIF data to CF cards with an accessory MV-1 card reader.
The F6 is completely compatible with every Nikon lens made since 1977.

Camera of my dreams

My dreams have come true and I'm a Nikon F6 owner right now. The camera was on roll 24 when I got it, so it was pretty new.

I like it a lot and I want to use it in rest of my life (as long as they produce 35mm film) along to my digital bodies, I am litterally in love with my camera.

If you are a serious 35mm film shooter I definetelly recommend this camera, it is absolutelly the best 35mm film camera ever produced. And for the ergonomics, it is surprising to notice that it is ergonomically superior to my Nikon D800E. The button layout is so similiar to contemprary Nikon cameras, also because of Nikons' obsession on heritage it was a great surprise when I browse through the "custom setup" menus, although it had missing items the general layout was same with all of my current pro Nikon bodies.

All my lenses are working normally with it even the ones with VR. The viewfinder is gorgeous, it is bright and clear. The weight of the body, even when used with the battery grip, feels balanced with my holly trinity lenses.

I can not stress it enough that it is an absolute joy both to own and to use my F6. I love it!Read full review

Best Film Camera Made

This is an amazing camera. It works with every full frame (non-DX) lens I have. Focus is fast and tack sharp. Exposure is spot on even with slide film in difficult light. I am very happy with my F6.

Maybe just a little bit to modern?

Don't get me wrong but I think this latest camera in the F series lacks a bit of charm. It is a great camera with more or less all features that a DSLR has. I really love the image quality and would not want to be without it in my collection :)Read full review

"The Last of the Film Dinasty"

This is the best of both worlds, but in film. The basic difference between this and digital, is that, film. It is a pure romantic attraction to go back to the "roots" of the photographic technology over the last hundred years. It is going back to the understanding of the most basic principles of light and yet, have all this new technological advances at your disposal. Basically, a digital camera in disguise.Read full review

It's as good as they say!

A used camera will always have that funky smell, but this camera works really well and very reliable. I plan to use it a lot for professional events.
