Nikon f100, the greatest Film Camera of all time (apart from the F6....;-) 

Still have my F100. Such a great camera!

A little tip when it comes to cleaning a batterychamber: take a cottonswab, dip it in 35% winegar, whipe the leakage clean. Take another cottonswab dipped in water, clean the batterycontacts again and let it dry. I have saved a camera like that.

I bought my first Nikon in 1962 at age 16. I've used and owned a number of Nikons since then, accumulating lenses along the way, so I tend to be dedicated to that system. Most of my experience was with the manual bodies, however I went auto-focus with a 8008S, which I loved for its electronic advancements. Much later I bought an F100, which I consider the highest for of Nikon as a practical user. The F5/F6 have extra features which or of minimum utility, and they weight too much for routine use IMO. So, I bought a second F100 body, now in storage. I think I paid about $125 for each F100, and both were in like new condition, then and now. My F3 is more traditional and far tougher, but I do not beat on my equipment, and it lacks the exposure and metering options of the F100.

Hello there, I have this camera for several years and the last time I used it I forgot to removed the battery holder and today after 2 years I found out the battery holder was all damaged due to the batteries, so do you thing by just buying a new battery holder will work?

Bro, looking at your back shelf you did NOT NEED ANOTHER camera body.

The camera that holds sentimental value to me is the pentax k1000

The Nikon F3 is THE best 35mm film camera of all time. Its 21 year production run is unlikely to ever be surpassed by any product, especially with 21st Century rapid product cycles. Its production run was epic even by 20th Century standards.
