Nikon F5 50/1,8

[braidedpink]

I own an F-5 - its a wonderful camera. I originally started with the f2 (my personal favorite) but this f-5 is very well built, feels amazing in the hands. Decent battery life ( get rechargeables ) and takes amazing pictures. smashing pumpkins video was filmed using a nikon f5. its fast.

Wow. That AF speed makes my D300s look slow.

@45shrike A Nikon F100 makes a D300s look slow.

holy shit!!!! ive been saving up for this for weeks now. im almost there. i ebayed my canon ae-1 and xa2 so i can get this

Holy crap that focus is crazy.

[Danked04]

it only does 8fps with the nikon battery... which goes for about $400 + charger. That was 7.4 or something...

[Ilovenycstrokes]

@Danked04 with Ni-mh batteries the camera can reach the 7.6 fps. I don't think there's much difference between 8 and 7.4-7.6 fps, don't you agree?

[yashrg]

how the hell did the F series cameras(film cameras) manage that speed? forwarding film itself must take a while!

[ElXGaspeth]

Holy crapolies.

That was freaking fast!

This is a beast. This maybe focuses faster with AF/AF-D than with AF-S :)

I will buy it as a fullframe body in future.

[Markok765]

It focuses that fast with the 50mm? I'm buying the 50 tomorrow!

[funkpilz]

WANT. Was that continuous shooting there? Sounds fast.

[canonsucks]

yeah, that was camera shoots 8fps (provided the shutter speed is 1/250th or higher) but that sounded a bit slower about 6-7 fps.
