Is the Nikon F601 (N6006) a hidden gem or a dud? I break down the top 3 pros and cons of this 35mm film camera
The Nikon F-601, otherwise known as the Nikon N6006, is a 35mm single-lens reflex (SLR) film camera. It was first SLR camera I own and sort of started my path into film photography. I bought it in 2002 and I still have it today.
The F601 featured an improved autofocus system, motor drive for automatic film advance, a built-in pop-up electronic flash, a top shutter speed of 1/2000 of a second, and a "Matrix" evaluative multi-zone metering program.
It is compatible with a wide range of Nikon F-mount lenses, including both autofocus and manual focus types.
Strongly recommended for beginners looking for a cheap, good camera to start off film photography.
I share 3 things I like and dislike about this camera and also show a slide show of photos of taken using this camera and a 50mm f1.8 lens with Fuji Provia film.
Let me know if you have any comments or questions.
