Quick aside... the N80 I think is Nikon's best deal in 35mm slrs. Amazing camera and insanely cheap.
But the one thing I don't like about it vs the F100 and F6 (yeah I know they are much more expensive etc) is the shutter release on the N80 feels kinda squishy.
Whereas the fancy cameras have that satisfying snappy release feeling.

I think it's the lag more than the squish. I don't mind the actual squishiness as it feels super smooth for those marginal handheld exposures.

I can't pretend that the F6 isn't easily my favorite of these three, but I do prefer the N80 to the F100 by a fair margin. They're just superb cameras.

I recently got N80 number four, in fact. I bought it because it came with the grip, which on its own seems to go for more than a decent N80. More digital cameras should share the ergonomics of a very compact, but fully-gripped camera. I would buy a Z8.5 that were roughly this size in a heartbeat.

I wouldn't really recommend anyone go out of their way for a gripped N80, but it's cool if you run across one. Just look at it next to the bigger cameras.

If you don’t mind an absolutely gigantic beast the F5 is probably the best deal for Nikon 35mm SLRs. I picked one up recently for around $150. It works perfectly. Autofocus on D lenses feels like it’s going to break the lenses it’s so powerful. 😂

I only intend to use it around the house, and probably mostly with a waist level finder or no finder at all and auto focus. Not a camera I’d wear around my neck though while out and about.

The stupidly expensive Negative Supply 4X5 Lightsource Pro arrived today. Negative Supply kept pushing back delivery to B&H Photo for the 97 CRI, so I ponied up and bought the 99 CRI.
After several years of using the fairly large 5X7 lightsource along with the accessory mounting plates, the carrier with it's mount drops right on. Also, no more listening to the fan.



Here are a couple of sample photos. All were taken with a M4, 35 1.4 Artizlab Classic, #15 yellow filter, HP-5 developed with Adox XT-3 1:1

Yeah I played with one briefly. Way way too much camera for me to shoot 35mm film!

I was curious if the new lightsource made any difference, so here's the same negative.

Veterans Memorial Park, Beaverton, Oregon Negative Supply 5X7 Lightsource Pro 95 CRI



Veterans Memorial Park, Beaverton, Oregon Negative Supply 4X5 Lightsource Pro 99 CRI



Both were converted with NLP B&W Linear Gamma profile, no other adjustments.

Here's the Hydrant. I think the difference is with the 5X7 Lightsource, the carrier was mounted to a plate that was slightly above the light. The updated version has a brighter light and the carrier sits directly on it.

The only way this photo could have been improved is if there was a dog in it.
You already have done that.

Thanks Fred, I appreciate the kind words!
