What’s not to like? It’s a Nikon F3!

Nikon F3 is the greatest 35mm film camera ever made. Solidly built with one of the most beautiful shutter sounds ever. Add to it the you can use every Nikon Lens made from the late 1950s to today.

.Very reliable camera with nice features

Excellent camera, built very strong and reliable. Worthwhile buy. Although the maximum speed is not high, it is normally sufficient for most real purposes (1/2000s). The weird thing is the flash whose attachment is not very commercial nowadays but it works very well using the correct adapter.
Very nice feeling when taking pictures, old school, most control. Read full review...

Great camera for the money. Considered to be one of the best from NIkon.

Thanks to the digital takeover, you buy a great camera like the Nikon F3 HP for a song. Take advantage of the features and rugged build quality and get the fun back into photography.
On a new set of silver oxide batteries you can take up to 5000 photos. If you do have a bad battery, you can still use this camera as a manual at 1/60th of a second shutter speed.
Takes all AL Nikon lenses so you can use all of your old lens which is a great feature.Read full review...

One of the smartest choices in 35mm cameras. A+

The Nikon F3 is the last of the manual focus Nikon cameras (after F and F2), and it is wonderful. This electronic shutter camera was produced by Nikon for about 20 years. There is no shortage of excellent examples available for purchase on ebay. The camera handles well, the image is bright and easy to focus, many different finders and screens are available, and it takes all Nikkor AI and AIS lenses. The MD-4 motor can be found quite inexpensively. The motor is light and fast and it can also power the camera. This is an important point. Even if your camera battery fails, or if you simply do not have a battery for the camera, the AA batteries in the MD-4 motor will power both the motor and the camera body. My first love in Nikon was the F/F2. Once I started using the F3, I still had the manual feel, but many wonderful and easy-to-use features that the F3 offers, but the F and F2 do not. In my view, this camera receives an A+.Read full review...

Great classics camera!!

This camera works great! The first set of photos came out very nice. I think I might get a different lens. The zoom is great but I’d like something smaller. That’s not a strike against this camera—I’ve wanted this camera for 3 years and so happy to get my hands on it!!!Read full review...

It was a work horse, and it still is.

Reliable camera that can still use old and brand new glass. Offers everything you need in a film camera.

My new favorite camera

I'm finally getting around to write a review after going through a couple of rolls. First off, I really want to thank you for the handwritten note and also printouts for the Nikon F3, it was a very kind and personal touch. The camera was exactly as mentioned in the listing and came with a lot of additional items which I really appreciated. I've had a lot of fun shooting with my new F3 and I really can't say anything bad about it.Read full review...
