The back (lid of the film compartment) is also made of aluminum alloy. The lower and upper parts are made of magnesium alloy. The camera body consists of a cast chassis made of aluminum alloy. However, in the manual for Nikon F6, I did not find any indication of the level of camera security. The Nikon F6 has a very high build quality and the Nikon F6 is water and dust resistant. Unlike Nikon F5 (previous model), the new camera was aimed a little at other users. Data imprinting about shooting directly on film (on the frame itself, or between frames, or on the zero frame).Advanced metering system exposure with 1005 pixel RGB sensor.Focusing system with 11 points (9 of which are cruciform).

In short, the Nikon F6 is interesting in the following features: Nikon D2x, which became the first camera with the classic CMOS sensor, setting the tone for the further development of Nikon cameras.

First of all, reportage photography was increasingly drawn to digital cameras and few expected that Nikon would take and release another reportage film camera.Īlong with Nikon F6, an excellent digital camera was also announced. The world of digital photography has practically supplanted film from many genres of photography. Prior to the announcement of the Nikon F6, Nikon DX series digital crop cameras were already released: Nikon D1, D1h, D1x, D100, D2h, D70 и Nikon E Series Full-Range Digital SLR Cameras: E2, E2S, E2N, E2NS, E3, E3S. At the same time, among the film cameras that are still being produced (or sold new), Nikon had only two Nikon F6 models (worth $ 2.669) and Nikon FM10 (worth $ 569). I prepared this review at the beginning of 2016, at this time on the official website camera Nikon F6 was still listed as current modern camera. The Nikon F6 camera was announced on Septemand became Nikon's latest film professional SLR camera. Of course, the Nikon F6 may be inferior to some other TOP or highly specialized SLR cameras from other manufacturers in details, but overall the Nikon F6 is simply gorgeous. Many photographers consider it to be the very best in the entire Nikon film SLR lineup.

Nikon F6 is one of the best film SLR cameras from Nikon. The first cameras in this series date back to 1959 and are updated approximately every 8 years: Nikon F6 is the sixth generation of professional film cameras.
