  • Outstanding image making machine

    One of my very favorite film cameras ever made. I shoot with a lot of cameras, both film and digital. Over the last year, I've come to prefer film over digital. The Nikon F100 allows you to create excellent images. The outstanding 3D Matrix metering takes all of the guessing out of shooting slide film, like Fuji Velvia, Velvia creates some of the most beautifully saturated images possible but has a very narrow exposure range. It's easy to blow a shot with this beautiful film. The 3D Matrix meter works extremely well for this film and everything else you shoot it with. The F100 also has a 1 degree spot meter, so you can use Ansel Adams Zone system to create stunning images in B&W. If you want to shoot with Aperture Priority, you also get Exposure Compensation from 1/3 to 3 in + and -, so you are good to go. It's the best film camera for a digital shooter to learn on because it uses all of the control digital shooters are used to. I also like the full range of shooting options from fully auto to fully manual. It has a great AF system and it's full frame. I just picked up an F100 in absolutely mint condition for $210. New this camera was $1,750. in 1998. Grab one because they are a pleasure to use.

  • Nikon F100 is a gem of an SLR

    The Nikon F100 is a modern film SLR with great ergonomics which Nikon are known for. The grip on the camera feels really nice in the hand and the buttons are easy to access. It has good auto focus and can shoot up to 8000th of a second which comes in handy when shooting in bright sunny conditions at wide apertures. The F100 was released in 1999 and has shutter speeds quicker than some modern DSLRs today which is amazing for a 20+ year old camera. The camera uses 4x AA batteries which is great as these batteries are easy to find and if you use quality AA batteries, the camera will last you a long time. I’m a light to medium shooter and I’ve had the same set of AA batteries in my F100 for over a year now and it still has battery remaining. Loading film in the F100 is a breeze and most of the time you end up with an extra frame or two from the film roll because of the the F100’s efficient auto film advance. If you’re looking for a film camera with advanced features and you don’t need to capture fast sports action or wild life then I highly recommend this camera. If you need faster frames per second for catching quick action then the Nikon F5 or F6 will be the better camera for that but they are more expensive and the Nikon F5 is bigger and heavier too, which is not necessarily a bad thing just something you may want to know when considering these cameras. Basically, if you know how to shoot a DSLR you’ll feel right at home with this gem of a camera.

  • Very capable and compact semi pro machine with fab features.

    The Nikon F100 is an amazingly affordable camera these days with very high specification and I used one professionally as a lighter back up to my Nikon F5. It allows use of old Nikon Ais manual focus as well as AFD auto focus lenses and more. As a film based camera it has great potential for any aspiring photographer or pro wanting to use film in a predominantly digital era where mobile phone cameras are gaining much ground once held by film based cameras. The features built into this camera are so many that most of them may not even be used by some users except the experienced but it caters for everyone at a great market price.

  • The Nikon F100 - Enjoy the character of 35mm Film Photography!

    My name is Doug Ward and I am a Professional Photographer. I do a lot of Travel and Art Photography. After a few years of using Nikon Digital SLR cameras, I wanted to do some work with film again to get a different look on my projects. So I chose the Nikon F100 35mm camera. It was designed in the late 1990's, but for it's time was "State of the Art". It operates very much like a new Nikon DSLR. It features a five-area auto focus sensor system. This will allow you to both preform focusing on high speed continuous shooting objects and on moving objects. It has focus controls for Manual, Single-Servo (Stationary Objects), and Continuous-Servo (Moving Objects). The F100 also has a 3D Matrix Metering Sensor. This will allow you to provide the correct exposure on your images. It has very comfortable controls for the Shutter (Rear: Main Command Dial) and the Aperture (Front: Sub-Command Dial). The Camera features, exposure modes such as: Programmed Auto, Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority. It has a Exposure Compensation controls and is able to auto bracket each shot. The Camera even has a large LCD Screen to display the settings. Just like the new Nikon Cameras. My Nikon F100 has allowed me to produce some beautiful images. My hope is that it will also do the same for you also.

  • Robert D.

    Nikon F100, Excellent film camera , ergonomics are intuitive and perfectly laid out . Had some Nikon digital gear as other brands but I like more 35mm film . So I sold my digital and back to film 35mm . I figure out if I need digital I am using my iPhone for virtual photography but real thing is film .and thats the reason I choose Nikon F100 ! It is instrument as pinnacle of film cameras , not to big , not to heavy simply in my opinion the best . Option for Nikon / Nikkor lenses are endless and you have full frame camera for a fraction of the digital camera !

  • A really good, 35mm camera

    After many years of digital photography, this year I have back tracked somewhat and I’ve come back to Film camera’s. I have purchased a few 35mm’s - a mixture of Nikon, Canon, Minolta and Practika - several of which I grew up with as a teenager. What I would say about the F100 is it’s a fabulous camera, from whatever period of photography you hail. Although it’s nearly 20+ years since the last one of these were made, the one I brought really doesn’t look it’s age. It’s got the Nikon quality build. A professional standard camera. It’s quiet (for an SLR). The autofocus is accurate and prompt. The metering equally so. A personal recommendation? If your a Nikon Digital person, and want to try analogue photography, but you don’t initially what to go completely mechanical, this camera is the perfect stepping stone. It’s clearly a film camera. You can only take 36 images (max) at a time. The whole process encourages you to think, calm down, and take the whole photography thing in a steadier, more measured manner. But it’s close in use and feel to the Nikon you already have. Personally, it’s one of the best cameras I have ever had. Analogue, or other wise. There is, however, a downside that it would only be fair to warn you about. Price... It’s not one of the cheaper model you can buy. Far from it. It seems to be midway in the Nikon 35mm catalogue (and substantially more expensive, relatively, then some of the other manufacturers models). All that said, I’m a big believer in that you get what you pay for. Yes, I paid more for this camera than I have for some of the other models. Do I regret it. Not in the slightest.

  • It is lovely to have this now I can complete my collection.

    I like the weight, compare to my other Nikon FTN with the motordrive F36, I know that both models will keep me happy of years of film shooting, it was a good buy. I manage to clean up the white residue by painting the back. I used to work at a camera store, and I had the last of the Kodak Black body paint so it looks as good as new.... Thank You

  • Like a digital camera for the 35mm film

    This is one of the most sophisticated 35mm film cameras. With a single servo and continuous dynamic focus tracking across five focus sensors, and multiple auto exposure modes, it has been designed to perform well under most shooting scenarios.

  • The amazingly talented F100

    I've been using cameras for a very long time now, from childhood to mandatory retirement, from the ancient to the very new. I've gone from very old roll film cameras to the digital age. I have had long relations with most of the family lines of single lens reflex cameras. This started with Minolta, strayed to Pentax, then went on to Olympus. I gave Canon a real try, and finally gave my full attention to Nikon. Along the way I noticed that I was spending more time expanding and maintaining my hoard than I was putting in to using them in the field and picking out the best shots in the darkroom. This was a sublime realization for a lover of the lens as the natural response was to snag a camera bag every I went out the door. It's a dedication that is a challenge both to my image hunting grounds as well as feel for the medium. That camera bag has, not surprisingly, become smaller and lighter. It no longer holds a couple or three camera bodies, three times that number of lens, along with tasty flash toys. These days the bag holds nothing but Nikon; a body, two lenses and a small flash. I carry more if I'm shooting for the paper, but then I absolutely have to get their shots, which means a second body, lenses tailored to that format and a very flexible flash system. But, that small bag is getting more and more use, and much is owed to Nikon for developing my very favorite camera body, the F100. It has so many capabilities that I almost never find myself unable to try out another set of features, and has never managed to fail, making me call on it's twin. The shutter is precise and flexible, it takes to flash like a fish to water and uses batteries I can find anywhere. The dazzling crown for this King is made from amazing Nikkor lenses, and the only problem is selecting which of these tag along. I find that I no longer keep a 'normal' lens mounted, tending more toward a fast 35mm and a zoom in the 35mm to 105mm range. If I'm going toward nature, the third lens is another zoom, covering the 105 to 210mm range; anything longer is a boat anchor. The best thing is that Nikon has built so many lens with fine definition, contrast and color balance over the years that the three lens battery can always take a slightly different selection. As of this date I am still not built for digital except for an Olympus pocket wonder that I think of as the 'document recorder' because that's the role it fills best. It's always along, but given a couple of heartbeats it will slip back into my briefcase and my intended target will see a Nikon F100 in it's place. These two F100 camera bodies will most likely fill my need for 35mm SLR film cameras from here to the great beyond, a place where no recording of wonders is needed. Beau

  • Powerful workhorse

    Powerful workhorse, not so beautiful like a Nikon FM or a Nikon F4, but light, sealed, rugged and with a great AF and lightweight. The perfect choice if you are planning to use it more than having it in a shelf. Compatible with Pre-AI, AI, AIS, D and G (also with VR) lenses
