[QUOTE="PeterRussell53, post: 34713, member: 8016"] I bought one of the first F5s in the UK and immediately went out into the frozen wilds of Bosnia, shooting images for the British Army. The camera worked absolutely faultlessly, apart from a tendency to eat batteries. This was cured by a tweak at Nikon UK and since then I have put thousands of the rolls of film through it before retiring it, along with my Nikon F4S and F90 in 2004 when I changed to digital. I've still got all the film cameras and occasionally take them out of the cabinet for a nostalgic shoot with colour negative... Trouble is, with 15 Nikon Fs, 4 Nikkormats, a Nikon F2, an F3 HP, an F801, an F90, an F4S and an F5 it gets very expensive on film and processing! [/QUOTE]
