Nikon F2SB

Just back from service with Sover Wong. Good as new now...

this is my favorite F2 configuration & my favorite "existing light" kit (though I preferred the 35/1.4 to the 50/1.4). :)

...the DP-3 had a one year production run [76] before it was replaced with the DP-12 which introduced A.I. indexing to the F2.
 
My 1967 F has the inscription "Union Photo Supply" on the bottom plate, I googled it without any results - anyone know why it got this engraving?

Not as old as some, but nearing 20 years:

And this puppy's getting up there, but after a complete rebuild by Nikon Authorized Service, it's as good as the day it left the factory.

Best,

PS: Both are for sale in the classifieds by the way.
 
1967 Nikon F & 1974 Nikon F2.
The F2 just had a CLA at Sover Wong, so smooth and nice. Almost too smooth, I think I prefere the older F before the F2... Still looking for a nice black F.

The PC-Nikkor 28 3.5 is the odd one out, that's from the 1980s.
