Another famous professional grade camera from Nikon. The Nikon F4 (which includes the MB21 Battery Grip and DP20 Prism) is a professional grade 35mm film camera produced in the late 1980s. This is another camera from a collector who claims the camera is unused. It is in Top Mint condition with no visible marks. I have ran one roll of film through it. The lens is a Nikkor 50mm 1.8 also unused.
Key Features said quickly
-
Incredibly fast loading, automatic winding, shutter, and autofocus
-
Advanced Full Matrix light metering
-
High shutter speed (up to 1/8000)
-
High Speed winding (5.7 frames a second)
The F4 came after the world renowned success of the F3, adding onto the advanced professional side of the film camera market. As with most Nikons it retained the ability to use all previous Nikon lenses (since 1959) giving consumers the ability to maintain their lens kits and just upgrade camera bodies.
They added a robust auto focusing system and created a focus tracking system. As well as shutter balancing and "resultant decreased shutter-shake.”
Nikon reinforced their quality assurance programs in their cameras to ensure it would hold up against their other cameras. They added shutter reliability evaluation activity, concentrated software debugging activity, added target value and control methods in their Assembly Process.
The feel of it is almost one of an inbetween the controls and menu of a DSLR we all recognize now and an older film camera feeling. The Matrix meter, LCD display, the speed of the shutter - it feels modernized and sleek. But they did not get rid of traditional clicky buttons.
This camera has over 1700 parts constructed with weather sealing and durable materials.
Condition: Top Mint unused from collector. No bleed (common issue on these). Fully tested and guaranteed working.
