    Description

    Description:
    The Nikon F3 was Nikon’s first professional camera with a light meter built into the body. It is the last professional manual focus Nikon made, the later F4 having auto focus.

    An excellent and durable camera. It can use all manual focus Nikon lenses, allows TTL flash metering and has an interchangable prism and viewing screen.

    This is the ‘HP’ variant, with a ‘High Eyepoint’ viewfinder. The large viewfinder allows the entire image and exposure information to be viewed from one inch away, a particular advantage for wearers of glasses.

    Included:
    Shoulder strap, body cap and the all-important motor drive cap.
