Question: For all you photographers, is this a good camera!?
Bonjour!. (: so I'm in a photography 1 class, while I'm not taking pictures yet, I got a camera from my grandmother, and it's an older Nikon I think!. I was wondering, is it a good camera!? I'll be getting pictures up in a second!. P!.S!. I'm sorry if they are bad quality, they were taken on my camera phone!. Any input would be great!Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's a Nikon F with a photomic viewfinder!. The viewfinder has a light meter built into it!. It is old but if it is working OK, it is a very good camera!. Check with someone who has been into photography for a long time and they should remember it!. It dates back to the late 50's, early 60's!. One of the early, really great SLR cameras!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Nikon don't make bad cameras!.
So long as it's mechanically and optically sound, the only problems will be the ones generated by unfamiliarity!.
Good luck with your lovely old work of art!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Nikons are good cameras!. Just remember it's the photographer who makes the pictures, not the camera!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If it's a Nikon, it's probably good!Www@QuestionHome@Com

We can't tell you if it's good or not until you tell us what kind of Nikon camera it is!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
