Then and now. my first Nikon F and latest Nikon D700.

When I bought the F in 1965 it was about £150 for a camera with no meter and certainly no autofocus, when that’s compared to average earnings in 1965 its around £4500.
About twice the price of the D700 which is a full frame digital that produces quality every bit as good a Kodachrome in the old F, but far more consistently.
The thing to remember is the 1965 Nikon F still works (apart from the self timer) I very much doubt that the D700 will still be working in 44 years!
