I shot one lens for thirty years. The 50mm f1.8 was all I had, so....😁

This was extremely helpful thank you and very fun

Very nice review. I also have this camera, given to me by my father in law. It’s a very well made and robust camera. Once I cleaned up the battery compartment (30 odd years of battery leakage) and inserted new ones, it worked like a dream. It’s biggest oddity is that it doesn’t auto rewind the film. It really was a camera in transition, but a very fine one. 👌🙏

The prism is the best thing about it. Put a good lens on it and the pictures will look as good as anything shot with the Nikon F.

I bought one and was so pleased with it I bought another as a back-up. Light and feature packed, great for hiking. My first F80 also produced intermittent Err messages. I tracked this down to the DX coding. If I manually set the ISO I don't get any error messages. Also the back door closing mechanism is prone to breaking but WHEN this happens just use a bit of gaffer tape to keep the door closed while there is film in. I paid £30 each for my cameras; worth every penny. I have an F90x too but I wouldn't take it on a hike as it's far too heavy for my 67 year old legs.

Brilliant. I love the 28mm f1.4D but I wanna add the 35mm f2D as well They're the perfect indoors close area lens to let you be part of the scene at the table w/ minimal dist5ortion. I've gone back to using my 50mm f1.4D again along the 85mm f1.4D

I had this camera in my closet for the past 10 years, thinking I would like to give it a try. What would be a good all around inexpensive lens to get for it?

Greta video! Been eyeing this lens for a while and think I'll take the plunge!

Absolutely right about the F5! Contrast that to the mirror slap on the F4 which is crazy loud. Either way I don’t mind.

Nice concise video, thank you 🙂 Would you say the light metering is accurate or do you adjust?

Modern AF-S Lens work like a charm on that body. I've used my 50mm 1.8G and 85mm 1.8G with excellent results.

Here’s a challenge for you: Only shoot in your back yard for 6 months.

Nice man. I usually make myself do personal challenges as well. 3 years ago I shot black and white for a whole year. Regardless of what I was shooting.

I have the Nikon 35mm f2 D and had it calibrated to my Nikon D610 body. It has become one of my favorite lenses in my camera bag after the calibration!

you explained well bro

Cheers James, Just bought F3... and a few old AI's... Bronica top class, next on my list. Simplicity the best way, KISS, lol

Great challenge I love my Nikon’s too my favourite lens is my MF 105 mm f2.5 use on both my digital and film cameras so sharp looking forward to see what you do next 👍🏻

Good video. I bought an F301 recently. Its build like a tank. Love it.

It sounds a great challenge, hope you'll have fun. I like the last photo on the video a lot. Hope you're well, stay safe and take care ;-)

Really nice video, thanks for making it.

hi james what would u say was a step up from the f80 as a more modern video camera

Good

Interesting going to buy one subscribed

Putting together the images for a book or a zine and create a layout makes always fun. It's also a lot of work, but at the end it's worth it, I think. Interesting photography channel.

Beautiful series of photos, I like the images at 2:09 and 4:00 from a lot and the photo at 8:18 from the Nikon, very nice composition!

Lol, my first camera was a d90, and my first film camera was an f80 too! Both great cameras, still my favourites to this day.

nice one mate, lot of quality work in there. never trust a sony to autofocus ;-)

Just bought one of these cameras and plan on doing studio photography with it. I haven't seen any studio vids with this camera, so super glad I stumbled on yours! Nice to hear your thought process as well.

Very thorough look at the whole developing process. Found you through the Film Photography Chat FB group - thanks for posting. Always looking for fellow film UA-camrs - Cheers!

I'm a sucker for backlight. The highlight retention on film really helps this style, too. Great work!

Hi! I have a problem! This configuration (f80 + battery grip) with the AF-S 24-85 f3.5-4.5 ED VR give me a problem. After I shoot charge indicator flashes and I can't do another shoot. I need to do on-off before shoot another frame. It happens with VR ON and also OFF. Do you know why? Thanks a lot.

Several of the F80's that I have bought have had the ERR message where the camera locks up sometimes wasting as you said 2 frames, it doesn't always happen and for the money it's worth taking the risk, let's face it, it's the greatest bargain in film photography at less than €20. I have 3, 1 for slide, 1 for BW and one for colour. They can use nearly every F mount Nikon lens except the modern AFP lenses. Get the grip and it looks like an F5. If you get the cool data film back it can imprint exposure details between the frames.

Can I mount AF-s FF lenses on it?

Thanks for the feedback on the F80. Picked up a Samsung Note 9 phone for the better (Unlocked NIB 45% off retail) for the better camera and used it on recent family vacation. Found that I took ssssoooo many photos in auto mode. Many are very nice (tech is cool that way), but +80% came from me trying to get lucky getting a pick of my family. Thinking about phone for point and shoot and film for pics of loved ones. All the "beginner/budget" videos point to late 70's/early 80's Nikon/Canon/Minolta SLR. For the price, the F/N80s seem to make so much more sense. It feels like film SLR like a used good conidition F80 offer a great quality film camera at a very reasonable price. Any thoughts on a first lens for the F80? Cheers!

cool Project..special Team..enjoy the Race....:-)

I remember this. I'm still yet to do my edit on it XD was a fun day all round.

haha I miss these days. Also hark atol john wayne down there in the comment :P

you speak from your heart, i like that ! Also, Killer Guitar :-)

The Ibanez’s GRG250DX was sold to me pretty much the moment I heard its clean tone. It sounded fantastic.

Haha Ibanez :) buy a Jackson their better ;)

I went testing out guitars and I was originally looking at the new SGJ, but it didn't really jump out at me for being special, I tried out a 50s tribute SG and that didn't either, then I spotted the ibanez, and I had to try it. I have deposited the £300 and now its going to be a hard two months till christmas

May I ask if you've ever played a RG3550MZ, ESP M-II, or Jackson SL2H?? If so, which one do you prefer?

You should actually do something with this!

cheers man. managed to find one kinda near me. Youve just introduced me to my new guitar!

@56sketch, oh, and I got it from Nevada Music in Portsmouth, no idea where in London you'd be able to get one.

@56sketch Yeah, it's a real fast Guitar, super slim neck, the Trem on it is fantastic, and the Pickups are real clear and quite high output as well, best Guitar I own for Pinches, and if you're comparing it for looks, price and the features on it with other Guitars in that price range, it's the best one on there by far :P

bro i have a fender vintage and it is quiet as hell so am looking for something with some nice metal sounds and not too pricey. would you recomend this guitar for metal? also where did you buy it? cant find it anywhere near me! (london)

Guitar Chord Chart... XD (I have it hidden away, my bro got it for me... must have been saying something...)

Awesome!
