Thanks Don. This is a great thread.
Now shooting Digi Nikon, I've tried several film bodies since the switch, was difficult to justify F5 anymore, but tried some inexpensive alternatives, just for curiuosity really (for occasional use).
Two examples, The Russian Kiev19 with the Nikon F mount, and a very early Nikkorex F (the poor mans Nikon F !)......
I've had some good shots with both.
Now settled for the very inexpensive and commonly found F301. suprised I over-looked it really.
