Re: [Digital BW] Nikon Back Up Body

2002-09-07 by Kip Babington

I've never used an F4 so cannot compare it to an F100, but I can say that I 
love the F100.  Its multiple focusing spots make it much more useful than 
the N90s it replaced.  Its primary function for me is capturing my daughter 
and her friends in mid-air on (and occasionally off) horseback at 
hunter-jumper horse shows, and it excels in this role.  For me, it is just 
the right tool for that purpose, as well as the usual family 
functions.  It's very quick with my stable of f/2.8 AF lenses, and exposure 
is just about always smack on.  Add an SB-28 flash and you have a very 
capable image making tool.

Cheers,
Kip
