Advantages: As opinion

Disadvantages: Costly

Professionals have used the F3 since the time Stonehenge was built, and what made it so special was you could still take pictures with it after using it as a hammer to built your own construction!

One of the most robust and reliable cameras ever built and with all the important features that a pro SLR needs. Basically it?s a manual camera, with a simple auto exposure option for brain off situations. The removable viewfinder is 100% accurate, so no nasty surprises at the edge of the frame, and so is the film wind on mechanism.

If you like to pose, a fast motor can be added for the right sounds, and the Nikon choice of lenses is as immense as the prices they ask for them.

If you want a bomb proof working camera, then look out for a second-hand F3, it will probably outlive most owners.
