This video is basically me finally giving my Nikon F the attention it deserves. It’s the oldest film camera in my collection—my copy is from 1972—and it was a gift from my grandpa, so it’s one of those cameras that’s never leaving my shelf. Everything you see (besides the talking head) was shot on a short morning walk back in October, and I’m showing all 23 frames from that roll. These photos were originally meant for a bigger Nikon F project, but I scrapped the idea, forgot about the footage, and didn’t even finish the roll until recently. For the walk I shot Fujifilm 400—my go-to 35mm stock for almost two years now—paired with the only F-mount lens I own: the 55mm f/3.5 macro. Since my metered prism doesn’t work (battery door was missing, and the replacement bottom plate didn’t fix it), I metered everything with my handheld Sekonic, which I’ve trusted since I started shooting film. The big takeaway: this 53-year-old camera still runs like a tank, Fujifilm 400 continues to be the best bang for the buck for color and performance, and even a simple walk can turn into a set of images worth talking through—light leaks and all.
