Nikon F6 Black Body

The advances in the F6 include many from recent developments in Nikon's sister digital SLR camera line, including the 11-area AF system for exceptionally accurate and fast autofocus operation, and the Creative Lighting System for incomparable flash photography control. As well, Nikon's proprietary 3D Colour Matrix Metering system has been refined for improved accuracy in scene reading, retaining Nikon's leadership in advanced colour metering.

The F6 offers a variety of exciting, innovative control options such as a customisable Function button, built-in data back functions, and shooting data memory. Photographers will also enjoy the convenience and versatility afforded by 41 Custom Settings, allowing them to fine-tune the F6 to suit individual shooting preferences and requirements. Access to command function information and settings is via an innovative rear panel supplementary LCD.

The F6 introduces Nikon's advanced Creative Lighting System i-TTL flash technology into a film camera for the first time. First shown in Nikon's D2H pro digital SLR camera, and more recently in the award-winning Nikon D70, in the Nikon F6, film users can now take advantage of the enormous creative possibilities of remote wireless command and control operation available with Nikon i-TTL Speedlights SB-800 and SB-600

The F6 also boasts a number of dedicated accessories, including a Multi-Power Battery Pack MB-40, seven interchangeable focusing screens, Data Reader MV-1 and camera cases.
