It has the normal Single Area AF, plus some pretty advanced Dynamic modes, including Focus Tracking with Lock-On, Closest Subject Priority and Group. The new AF uses the Multi-CAM 2000 AF Sensor Module and has 9 AF sensors. It also has a greatly improved algorithm 3D Color Matrix metering, a flexible Center Weighted metering and Spot metering that you can assign to any one of 11 focus points. So, you can customize your shooting preferences with 41 Custom Settings. Plus a built-in shooting data memory, (my favorite), plus the ability to program custom functions and all the other stuff data backs do. (although Nikon lists it as backordered) The advance design, including an 11-area super accurate AF perfectly melded with Nikon’s awesome Creative Lighting System (iTTL flash) and 3D Color Matrix Metering.
The Nikon F6 is Nikon’s flagship film camera.

Probably the best full review I’ve seen is over at. This is not meant to be an in-depth review. (Nikon’s latest digital wonder has nothing on an F6,….uhh, except a sensor) Nikon F6 Review Lite You’d expect at least one 4 star review! Nope. In fact, it’s the only 35mm camera I know of on the B&H website, including Leica’s, that has more than 30 or 40 customer reviews and is still 100% 5 star rated.
In this top 35mm SLR there is only a few players to this high level : Canon, Leica (no AF), maybe we can say Contax RTSIII which is an other beast with Zeiss lens.Is a camera I often discount as just Nikon saying, “Hey, we are still the King when it comes to film cameras”! But it’s not. If you buy you can keep for ever, the cameras which have been recalled were recalled to match the material standard of EU, not a problem of quality 😉 I do not need AF, I trust my hands and my eyes. If we want 100 % good result on metering and focus with AF lens, this is the camera. This camera has only problem : it is heavy, despite lighther than F5, but heavy. This is one of the 10 best top analog camera, maybe the best one, if we want a camera which gives the opportunity to take pictures fast with all kind of film includind Velvia 50, it is well made like all Nikon and Nikon lens are nearly the best in the market with Zeiss, Leica, Schneider, some like some famous Ai-s are the best (28mm/2.8, Micro 55mm, 85/1.4, 105/2.5, … the lens from Zeiss or Leica will not add too much on real photography just difference of test). Decried by many stick-in-the-muds as being inferior to the F5 and F4 that came before it, the current design cues of Nikon’s full-frame DSLR range have not shifted much from that of the F6 for some 14 years. It embodies everything Nikon knew about making robust, reliable, and supremely usable cameras. Originally launched in 2004 - 45 years after the Nikon F - the F6 represented the pinnacle of 35mm film camera functionality and usability. Sadly, it looks like this will never be the case.
Nikon f6 35mm film camera series#
Some members of the film photography community even took signs of the F6’s continued production - shrouded under a cloak of mystery for years - as hope that there might eventually be a new Nikon F series camera on the horizon. It seemed the writing might be on the wall when Nikon announced a global Nikon F6 product recall for 152 Nikon F6 cameras earlier this year but I, along with many other Nikon F6 owners and film shooters, were hoping that this was merely a blip that could be smothed over. It was a camera that would lay the groundwork for Nikon’s dominance in film cameras for the next 50+ years and spawned the Nikon M model (1949), Nikon S (1950), and eventually the S2, SP, and finally, the Nikon F. Nikon’s first, production, the Nikon Model I was released in March 1948, just two and a half years short years after the end of World War II.
