Question about F80

NitroTech · 9th October 2002

Hi all,

does anyone of you guys know whether the F80 can be programmed or modified so that when the I rewind the film, the leader will stick out (just like the F100).

Cheers!!

There shouldn't be a problem. If it can be done to the older F90X, I don't see why it couldn't be done with the F80. A Nikon tech once told me you can actually re-programme these cameras to do almost thing on the list. Costs money though.

Wonder whether they can re-program the F80's flash sync speed to 1/250 and 1/3 EV instaed of 1/2?

If can then REALLY can stop thinking about the F100 for the time being. (I emphasize the word "REALLY")

That reminds me of something. They won't do it because they want you to get the F100.

Yeah she is. She says that she will try her best to find her way around and will only call you if it's the last resort. Better that way I guess, cos not nice to impose on you during your exams.

BTW, she will be in the city on 31st Oct and 1st Nov.
