The Nikon F5 is an SLR Ferrari. It fires eight frames per second. Manufactured between 1996 and 2004, it is the biggest, toughest, fastest 35mm film camera ever made by Nikon. Arthur Morris, a Canon contract photographer, said in 2001 the F5 was the world's best camera. It originally sold for thousands and was popular among photojournalists. Today they run $400 used. The color matrix metering is extraordinary. Great all-purpose camera – sports, portraits, landscapes, anything. Read Ken Rockwell's full review. Images on this page were shot with an F5, my favorite 35mm film camera.
