The Nikon F6 35mm film camera, shown with the Multi-power high speed Nikon MB-40 battery pack and the Nikon 50mm 1.4D lens. These days we've been conditioned to believe we need a new (digital) camera every few years. The complete antithesis of this "modern approach" to photography, however, is the F6. Produced once every 8 or so years since the late 1950's the professional Nikon F-series cameras leverage engineering and design DNA like no other camera manufacturer. Standing at a unique moment in time, the F6 is the crescendo of that engineering and design excellence brought to bare to produce one, final 35mm film-shooting masterpiece. It's not often you can hold in your hands the very best of something that has been - or ever will be - made. The Nikon F6 is that: arguably - the very best 35mm film camera ever made. By anyone. Ever.
