    Joining the Ranks

    Alright so I got a modern film SLR today, a Nikon F80 with a Sigma 28-300mm and Nikon 24mm lens. It's in awesome condition.

    Also recently I aquired an Ensign Ranger II 120 film camera so I've already shot a roll with that, results will be soon.

    Re: Joining the Ranks

    I loved my N80 when I was shooting film. I think you will really enjoy using it. I have a manual Nikkor 24mm lens that was one of my all time favorites. Sounds like you got your self some nice equipment.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    I picked up some more accessories for the F80, including a very nice Nikon Speedlight SB-28 flash and a 28mm-80mm Nikon Lens. Ordering the MB-16 tomorrow from B&H

    The MB-16 was the very best move I made with the N80. It gave the camera a great feel and made it a wonderful camera to shot with.
