I love all of my Nikon F's

[ymc226]

Grew up when the FM and FE were the cameras I dreamed of. Now that film F's are much cheaper, I got a whole bunch of them on the Bay cheap a few years back and had a wall built to house them all.

I got a few that were hard to find BNIB (F4S, F5 Anniversary, F5). The F6 is a demo but looks brand new. A couple of F3/T in champange and black in mint conditon as well as a F3HP Press.

Sorry about the lighting and poor quality. My iPhone is the only digital camera I have. I usually shoot B&W 35mm and MF only.

I do have some Alien Bees but don't think the iPhone would trigger them.

That's a great collection and beautifully presented.

Collecting does make sense when it can obviously give someone this much pleasure.

I meant to ask ... what do you shoot with on a regular basis?

Don't know which cost more, the cameras or the wall, but it is a beautiful display. If you only had a NASA camera...

Thanks. I wanted to share.

For my children's sports (soccer and lacrosse, Nikon F6 with 70-200 VR and 1.7x teleconverter) with Neopan.

For family pictures at home: Fuji GSW 690 III, GW 690 III, Hasselblad 205FEs, 205FCC, Mamiya 7IIs, Leica MPs and M7s with Neopan and Acros. Also use a F3HP, FE2 and FM2n on occasion.

Bought about 600 rolls of Neopan in 120 when it was announced that it would be discontinued. Still have about 400 in the freezer.

I think you're my new hero too! 😛

I have 2 Fs, oh! and six lenses...

I just showed my wife your display wall.

I just showed my wife your display wall.

And she said?

😀

 

[Vickko]

Pure eye candy.

Thanks

No, not at all. According to my wife, more like a "dummy" with too much time on his hands. 🙂

I tend to agree, though it gives me as much pleasure to stare at these beauties as much as it does taking pictures and working in the darkroom.

 

[FrankS]

And she said?

😀

She said, "Are you getting any ideas?"

That's a lot milder than I thought her reaction would be. You have to know though, that she put up with a cedar strip fiberglass canoe hanging from the living room ceiling for several years.

What a fantastic collection! First class display. I am speechless.

 

[kchong]

Amazing! Just out of curiosity, how does your family feel about your avoidance of digital photography?

 

[gerikson]

Lovely display!

 

[shadowfox]

That is not a display...
that's a shrine.

Please take a higher resolution picture of it and share it with us.
Your big Fujis can trip your Alien Bee's 😀

Nice Re.F.lex Collection.
