Hi everyone, By means of introduction, my photography journey has been as follows: 1990-2000 - Canon AE-1, A1, 35mm film SLRs, which I adored 2005-2015 - Nikon Professional full frame DSLRs with the amazing ‘holy trinity’ of lenses (14-24mm f/2.8, 24-70mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8) which felt so technically perfect that you wondered whether you were controlling the camera or the camera was controlling you 2015-2023 - Leica M3, Leica MP film rangefinders, beautiful in their own way, but never enjoyed them as much as SLRs All have been eventually sold. Next I’m looking for a film SLR - and I’m considering either: Canon F-1N (i.e. the third generation of F-1, after the F-1 and F-1n) Nikon FM3a Both very different cameras, but unique in their own way. The F1-N, the pinnacle of Canon professional film SLRs, with tank like construction. The FM3a, the last ever Nikon film SLR. Both are mechanically quite complex with (different types of) hybrid mechanical/electronic shutters. Is one going to be more of a problem to own when it comes to longevity, complexity of repair etc.? Is one much nicer to use than the other? Has anyone used both regularly who can offer some ideas? Of course, the answer is to buy both, but in that case, which one should I aim for first? Thank you, and I appreciate your advice!

LOCATION: UK Launched in June 2001, Nikon D1X is a 5.0MP Pro DSLR camera with a APS-C (23.7 x 15.5 mm ) sized CCD sensor, weather-sealed body and Nikon F lens mount. Here is your chance to own a very good example. In very good condition and comes with the following: Camera with rear screen cover and camera body cap (does not include a lens) 1 working battery that holds a good charge and 2 batteries that don't (but can be converted to L-ion - see Youtube) 1 Fast battery charger oem 1 AC adapter oem 1GB CF card and an adapter Manual Nikon software including Nikon View 4 and Nikon Capture 2 (untested) The original boxes including the external box that holds everything. (Top polystyrene is missing for the camera box - see picture- but will pack it securely) £199.00 Free shipping in the UK. If it isn't as described then I will of course refund you. DP Review said of it when it came out: I'm quite comfortable applauding Nikon and giving the D1x the crown of the best digital SLR on the market (at the time of writing this review). When you see the camera as a whole, it's excellent build quality, super rugged body and you add amazing resolution, superb colour reproduction, low noise at higher ISO's, fast operational speed, support for Microdrive you begin to realize that the D1x is going to be a very tough act for ANYONE to follow. It's price tag was £6000. Some specs Nikon D1X has environmental sealings on its body which makes it a weather resistant camera, providing resistance against the water and dust getting in to the camera. If you like outdoors photography and want to be able to use your camera in extreme conditions, Nikon D1X will serve you well. If you attach one of these Nikon D1X weather-sealed lenses to your camera, you will have a great all weather kit. Nikon D1X has a Nikon F lens mount and currently there are 316 native lenses available for this mount. Besides providing one of the largest selection of lenses, Nikon F mount also has backward compatibility which means that you can use F mount lenses even dating from 1960s. It is also well supported by the lenses form third-party manufacturers. Nikon D1X doesn't have a sensor based image stabilization system but 107 of these lenses already comes with Optical Image Stabilization. There are 82 lenses with weather sealing for Nikon D1X that you can couple with its weather-sealed body. Nikon D1X can shoot continuously at max speed of 3 fps and has max shutter speed of 1/16000 sec. It has phase detection autofocus. Link to multiple images below: Images

I have a couple of Cell II-N for my Nikon camera and 120J strobe. It triggers fine except for the occasional misfires (fires without me press anything). Anyway, I don't need TTL as I am just using some Sunpak 120J or other generic flashes. My question is Would the Cells II-N as a transmitter attached to a Nikon camera, able to trigger a Cells II-C act as a receiver attached to any flash or strobes and be able to do Hypersync. With a pair of Cells II-N I have no issue doing hypersync at full flash power up to 1/8000s.

I decided to enter an employee art exhibit at my work. These two photos came up on my short list of options to exhibit. The first, Grand Central is a combination of 5 exposures, which allowed me to highlight the incredible space that is the great hall. The second, is Princeton University, shot on a Rolleiflex using Kodak Tri-X. The Grand Central print is approx 20x30”, the Princeton photo is 12x12”. Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
