20th Century


Nikon SLRs

Although my first love is and shall always be Konica, I also own Nikon equipment and will provide a little Nikon information here. I do not have the time or space to go into depths of Nikon SLR cameras, but will list those Nikon SLRs of the 20th Century (1959-2000) and a few from this century, as well as information on those bodies I own or have worked with. Information on Nikon can easily be found on the internet, with one of the best sources of information being Photography in Malaysia.

21st Century Nikon SLRs


The Nikon bodies I presently own are the EL, FE2, FM3A, N60, N65, N80, F100, F4, F5, D70s, D100, and D200. Others that I find interesting are the FT3, FM2n, and D2Xs. I have little interest in the others, but that's not to say that other Nikons are not good or great cameras. Those are just my personal preferrences for one reason or another.
