Nikon F4 Studio Photography
I finally had chance to try the Nikon F4 with fresh film and a good model. It didn't disappoint!
Photo from last night in the studio with Gina
Nikon F4 + Tamron 100mm f2.8 AF Macro + Kodak T-Max 100 film
Rodinal 1:200 semi stand development, 45min, 20 degrees, Epson v800 scan
Metered at ISO 100, f4-5.6, 1/250. It looks like 1/250 is too fast for the flash as you can see the band on the right of the photo as the shutter passes. Any thoughts Nikon F4 shooters? Thanks!
All in all pleased. The F4 can match the Leicas in terms of sharpness if you attach the right lens. Film Leica vs Film Nikon is more about the film so more equal. Digital Nikon vs Digital Leica. I still prefer the Leica CCD sensor look overall but the Nikon can produce nice sharp high res images.
