The Nikon F3 was the third generation of the professional class Nikon F-series 35mm SLR camera model. Introduced in 1980, it was the successor to the original Nikon F of 1959, and the hugely successful Nikon F2 of the 70s, where both the earlier models were commanding a distinctive supremacy in the professional users’ market. When the F3 was first announced, the heavy automation in the camera sent cold shivers down the spine of most purist photographers. As one can still recall, the price of a discontinued fully mechanical Nikon F2AS had a retail price higher than that of a new automatic Nikon F3 during those early days of its introduction, which was Nikon’s way of saying ‘move on’, to the photographic community!

simple lens cleaning procedure performed on minolta’s 50/1.7, 17-35/2.8-4 and sigma 105/2.8 macro. if you shoot concerts, lenses become dirty almost every show. here’s how i deal with that. 105mm is the most difficult because of the front element being located deep in the barrel
A look into the 3D test camera rig I made to gang 2 video cameras together for a very quick test, requires two identical video cameras to attempt this create footage via this method.
I simple tip for quickly changing lenses on your DSLR camera.
