The Nikon F100 was released in 1999 and produced until 2006. On bigger ventures out where I was using one of my medium format cameras, a buddy of mine was armed with the F100, and though he had little experience with photography and no experience with film photography, he took some of my favorite photos of the trip. For short walks through the village where my friends live and in the evenings, I was keeping the F100 in hand. This benefit was more obvious than ever on my most recent (pre-COVID-19) big trip. In addition, and this is probably the best benefit to me, it is so easy to use that someone with no film experience and little to no digital camera experience can competently use it and produce some wonderful work. As such, I put more rolls through the F100 than any other camera that I own. However, there are far fewer of those instances than times when I want to shoot around the house or on walks with the dog or whatever else may be nice to keep a camera by my side. Being that it is 35mm, it doesn’t always make it out of the house if I’d rather be shooting medium format. To start, the Nikon F100 is all around the most utilitarian camera that I own. The value of this Nikon is almost impossible to beat. Even if you don’t, the F100 is still for you. If you’d like to get into film and you already have modern glass for a Nikon camera, the F100 is for you.
