dave, i heard so much about the f3hp, how is it different from the fm2 and fe series? Didnt get the chance to try it. Benji told me on our malacca trip that this camera rocks! The smoothest shutter...and i think ur 50mm f1.2 ais produce really wonderful images!
i got this piece at a discount, then realised that it was tampered with by the ex owner....phillip tay managed to salvage for me...
the 55mm f1.2 ai, pretty harsh bokeh
yup, thanks for sharing, now that you mention, i should be using SLR for slides..Bro, no idea the difference but F3 was a model that stay on Nikon production for about 20 yrs I believe. It's professional cameras used by many in the past. I love it and for AE, this is as good as it gets! Very robust build with solid brass body. It's really refreshing to look through the lens and seeing things in focus after using the Rangefinder for awhile. I am using colors and sldies on this body and save the B&W on my Ms.
Go try one out!!! It's very cheap body and I suspect will last you a long time, despite it being an electronic shutter and AE.
Shot using FM3A, Kodak Porta VC 400
some random shots from my OM2sp + zuiko 50mm 1.4 or zuiko 28mm f2.8
We should start a cat appreciation thread here if it hasn't already been done!
Was thinking of starting a Dog series. Just need to find some dogs to shoot.
