F100 a milestone in Nikon story

I have had a F801 and have at the moment a F90X Prof.. As prices for analog cameras have fallen very strongly, I have made myself a second case, an F100. The F90X is already a very good camera, but the F100 surpasses it by all means, I would have not even thought of. The biggest advance is for me in the autofocus, the F100 is much faster on the desired object sharp and must not, as in the F90X ever happened, back and forth helplessly. I am also interested that they can calculate the sharp point of moving objects at the time of exposure and corresponding sharp represents, however, can the F90X already. In contrast to the F90X F100 has several fields for the Auto Focus and you can let the camera decide with moving objects which field it takes, that she presents to the next object sharp and "persecuted" it in motion. This setting I never choose, however, I have chosen manual the middle field, leave to focus on my desired object, save the value (trigger hold) and then select the desired section. I would like to highlight the flash metering, it works so sensational that the flash did not notice most geblitzen shots, so the flash is also in strong sunlight, for example, correct setting provided illuminate objects or people. The record with the flash just amazingly good!

As befits a good Nikon, the camera is also extremely robust and is very good in the hand, but only if you installed the additional battery grip. He has at least three advantages, the camera is thus better in his hand, the number of batteries is increased by 2 pieces, and he still has a vertical shutter release.

When F100 on an internal flash and scene modes waived, not been waived, the camera individually adjust to the possibility of small flaw in this case, one has to read the numbers of the settings in the manual, but it is these settings usually only once make, it can get over yourself so.

A word to the power supply, the camera can be operated with normal and widely available AA batteries, but it should already be high, since the camera is very power hungry, batteries go of course.

The housing is made of a magnesium alloy, which is so stable, so that one could almost beat nails into the wall.

For me the camera is a clear Kauftip, makes them with the right movie pictures, which are not reached by the current DSLRs. As a movie I can recommend the Kodak Ektar® 100 Prof., for me that's pretty much the best film on the market!
