NIKON F5 CAMERA /BODY - OWNED AND USED BY PHOTOGRAPHER MIKE BARICH. TThe Nikon F5 is a 35 mm film-based single-lens reflex camera body manufactured by Nikon from 1996 through 2004. It was the fifth in Nikon's professional film camera line, which began in 1959 with the Nikon F. It followed the Nikon F4 of 1988, which had introduced in-body autofocus to Nikon's professional line. The F5 was in turn succeeded by the Nikon F6, as well as Nikon's parallel range of professional digital SLRs, beginning with the Nikon D1. In Mike’s own words:
The F5 had everythinbg you wanted in a still camera. I was especially fond of the cordless motor - the film zipped through without lag. It has a vertical shutter and could shoot 8000/of a second… you could catch a water drop ! I used this for a lot of technical work. Like production photos for industrial and commercial work and occasional concerts”.
