Never dreamed a N75 could look beautiful, nice.

Top view of my largest SLR; the mamiya RB67. Taken with my D700.

There are several SLR's in here; including nikon, praktica, pentax, mamiya, canon, minolta.

Probably my fav SLR, the Nikkormat FT2, with Nikkor-S 50mm f1.4.

Just got this one. I hope the 28mm CZJ performs as well as the Biotar that I have.

 

[richreidjr]

those nikkor 50mm 1.8 E series lenses are great lenses. Really inexpensive, but a super performer.

I've got too many... but can't let them go... unless I need Hospital or food on the table...

Both?

No really...I know what the lens is (very nice by the way), and the camera...but whats the thing on top?

The troll, doesn't everyone have one of those cameras?

Wow, Zentralverschluss, that is a clean kit there. Did you buy it new? I just picked up an F1n and while I have long been a fan of the F1N, this thing is really growing on me. I'll stick with the F1N for AE though!

I found that:

The Servo EE Finder is a viewfinder provided with an automatic exposure control which works by means of an electronic circuit powering a servo motor. One of the features of the F-1 system is the practical application of available electronic technology on its F-1 as accessories. By the way, it can be said that the Servo EE Finder is an improvement of the full aperture metering mechanism of the Canon F-1 to be able to decide exposure with EE at full aperture. Though Canon claimed this product is Canon's exclusive but Nikon does has few similar options as a added on device for its F2 during the seventies, like the EE Aperture Control Unit for comparable automation (Like the Canon F-1, although the F2 did not have AE capability built into the body, Shutter Priority Exposure was possible with the DP2, DP3, and DP3 finders when used in conjunction with EE Attachment DS-1, DS-2, and DS-12, respectively. The motor attachments (Battery operated as well) to the finders works like shutter priority automation by physically turning the aperture ring to the desired f number on the lens)



It definitely looks "professional"

Gavin - beautiful collectors item, but isn't it a pity, to not shot it ;-)

This has just landed on my doorstep.

It's my first DSLR after using a Nikon compact. I like the instant feedback of the digital medium although film is more fun.

"Gentle Giant"
is a (formerly?) famous rock-group of the 70ties. The CD in the first picture is - in my opinion - suitable to this hulk of a camera.
It was a long quest to find a pristine F-1, Motor Drive MF and the EE-Finder.
All is in fully working order and YES, I take pictures with it ;-)
It looks very heavy and bulky, but it is a pleasure to work with it! In contrast to the New F-1, you have- besides continuous metering - a real AE-lock.
Greetings to all RFF Members and a happy New Year!
