testing the F4 I rec'd from Nicole
« on: March 11, 2009, 11:05:51 PM »
Just ran a quick roll through the new (to me) F4.

This one's a quick and dirty scan with no adjustments in PS except for a few dust spots.

Film was oldish roll of B&W Kodak 400  .  The camera is a tank, but I am already totally smitten with it.
It will be packed for the road trip to Texas next week.   :)

I live about six miles down this road...under those clouds!  :)

Glad you love the camera, Becky. Nice to see an oldie but goldie getting new life breathed into it - and I mean the F4 here, not you!!
 :D ;) ;)

BTW, I just noticed the WTCD reference in yr sig file. Yah! That's telling 'em. Just be careful that a certain 'Society' from Vienna doesn't try to steal that title from you....they've done similar in the past.

I know that I've said it elsewhere, Becky, but, that shot is a killer.

The F4 is indeed a beast and has a motor drive on it like a machine gun! Candid street shots require a certain - flair! I'm sure my F4 and F5 sit with 3 year old film in them - I ought to put the batteries back in them and at least finish the films. I must say I have always been amazed at the accuracy of the Nikon metering.

May it be a long and fruitful relationship - I do  fear the F4 upsetting you though as you are sure to cut it into pieces and turn it into a pinhole!
