It is possible that just before its withdrawal, some photographers precipitate to buy it as that it was in the past for the camera F when it was replaced by the F2 in 1971. It must without doubt rapidly replace these two cameras.Īt time of its retirement, the F5 remains therefore in the race and is without doubting the film camera the most complete ever realized. The level the construction and its price of NikonF6 positioned it between the Nikon F5 (2990 €) and the Nikon F100 (1800 €). It does not seem that multifunction back or 250 views back will be available, it is true that the new LCD display defers the F6 allows many new functions as matrix measurement with the all lenses including AI lenses, as being a data back and to offer the possibility to transfer shooting data with the use of the optional CF reader/recorder MV-1. The Nikon F6 preserves the rewind button but abandons the interchangeable viewfinders that were one distinctive advantage of series F. Nikon had not therefore other choice that to propose a camera in alloy of aluminum with all-weathers norms of construction, rigidity, endurance, resistance to the rain and to dust to be equal or better as the F5 but with a light price. Now, few photographers are ready to spend more than 3000 € for a film camera and a lot have privileged the F100 to the F5 for economic reasons.
Up till now, each new camera series F represented the quintessence of photographic possibilities, with a light increase of the price. It is coming eight years after the F5, as forecasted.Ĭontrarily to previous cameras F, The Nikon F6 arrives in a time where sales of film cameras have collapsed, mainly those of prof cameras, professional photographers are now in majority large equipped some numerical cameras that would have to increase in the future. After many rumors, often contradictory Nikon F6 has been presented to Photokina and will be available from October 2004 at the price of 2199 €.
