 Nikon F100 is a GREAT camera August 22, 2009

The Nikon F100 lives up to it's reputation. After using digital SLR cameras for about a year, i thought i would experiment with film a little bit. There were cheaper, lighter options, but the Nikon F100 caught my eye with it's well constructed body, and professional feature-set. This camera will surely satisfy your needs.
The Nikon F100 has a very sturdy, dare i say professional, feel. It's heavier than most film cameras, and is about the same weight as a comparable digital SLR. Like all professional-level cameras, you won't find a flash on the camera. If you want one, you're going to have to get one, for a little more.
The F100 has a lot of custom settings, and controls (that may be confusing if you're not familiar with such features already). It's not a camera a complete amateur would buy. There are automatic modes (of course), however. The light-meter is very accurate, and the metering modes are easy to access.
I think having to hold down two buttons to access a feature is a little annoying, and some of the buttons are ackwardly placed on the body. It takes four (4) double A (AA) batteries, which adds to the body's weight, but they are remarkably long-lasting. They are said to last for 70 rolls of film.
The camera handles well, and the photographs are great. Just wish film and development were cheaper. In the long run, digital is alot cheaper, and a hell-of-alot more convenient; which is why most professionals made the switch a long time ago. Most use film for the quality-difference, and that difference is argued. In conclusion, it's a great film camera that will surely satisfy your needs.
Film Forever With Nikon F100 June 13, 2008

Put simply, I'm a child of the 60's and all I ever knew was film.
I shot film over the past few decades using Minolta SLRs and a point and shoot.
Yea, I got a digital advanced point and shoot in 2007, yada, yada. To be honest, it's a boring way to do photography. I use the digital mostly for taking shots of items I sell on that auction site that begins with E. Otherwise I'd be a slave to Photoshop editing and manipulating hundreds of boring shots to make them look all fancy and unrealistic.
I want purity.
Being drawn to film because of it's superior print quality, I chose to upgrade my equipment and so bought a Nikon F100 with an SB28 Flash and 2 third party zoom lenses for a real bargain...a couple hundred bucks total. I think my old Minoltas are going to be gathering a bit of dust from now on!
I'll tell you this about the F100, it's not really for beginners. It is/was designed for professional photographers. It can be set up to be used as a giant Point and Shoot for those who are not so familiar with photographical techniques, but if you know your stuff and READ THE MANUAL, this is the BEST 35mm camera EVER for pros and serious amateurs alike.
There's so many features it's unbelievable. The camera just feels great in your hands. The autofocus options are both fantastic for whatever situation your in. I'd recommend the MB-15 battery pack/vertical grip. It makes a heavy camera a little heavier but having the ability to comfortably shoot vertically is priceless.
I can't bring myself to spend all the $$$$$$$$ on a DSLR system so I'll gladly take the bargain 35mm SLR deals and let other crazy people spend $$$$$$ on a toy that will bore them within a few months.
FILM FOREVER!! LONG LIVE FILM!
F-100 and D1X July 16, 2007

I have had my D1x for a long time and needed something shot on film. I got the MB15 vertical grip to go with it. Now, the two are so much alike I have to check which one I am using.
Seriously, the transition between the two is effortless.
Nikon F100 manual June 5, 2007

This is another noncommittal review. The manual for this camera is not available at Nikon USA. You can get it at Nikon EU. Amazon apparently does not like including links in reviews so I will not include it here. The file is about 3.6 MB.
The manual for the Nikon F5 is also available at that site. ( I posted the link on my review for the F5 but I am not sure if Amazon will post the review because it has a link )
Excellent Camera June 5, 2007

Bought it when my Son was born, never let me down, always excellent pictures. You have to read the manual to get the full benefit. Would by Nikon SLR again.
