Harsh environmental testing
To ensure the high level of
durability you expect from a
Nikon F series SLR, the F6
has been subjected to rigor-
ous testing. Even the lubri-
cants applied to gear parts
are carefully tested to assure
peak performance in
extreme temperatures and
high humidity. The F6’s
astonishing reliability is a
function of Nikon’s “right material for the
right place” approach. Our engineers consid-
ered countless situations of potential camera
use, then submitted the F6
to real-life testing to ensure
exceptional dependability
wherever and whenever
you shoot.
Camera ergonomics
In our quest for new levels
of ergonomic achievement,
we’ve left no part of the camera’s exterior
ignored. The first time you handle the F6,
you’re seduced by the strikingly comfortable,
ergonomic design. Every curve, every undu-
lation has been accomplished through
advanced computer-aided design. But that’s
just the tip of the iceberg. Nikon spent
unprecedented amounts of time sculpting
the contours of the grip, to ensure greater
comfort and balance in the hand even during
extended use. The button and dial design
and layout are every bit as intelligent as they
are attractive.
Unrivaled durability
Imagine, as a photographer, the places or
conditions in which you are most concerned
about the toughness of your photographic
tools. Now look at the F6 — an aluminum-
alloy die-cast chassis; magnesium-alloy front
body and covers (top, bottom); strategically
placed rubber surfaces; an easy-to-grip tex-
ture, and a shutter that has undergone test-
ing to assure accurate release up to and
beyond 150,000 cycles. The F6 features the
strength, rigidity and durability to perform
whenever you need it. Put it to the test and
see for yourself.
Multiple power sources
The F6’s standard power source, two
CR123A 3V lithium batteries, enables high-
speed film advance at 5.5 fps. Or you can go
with the optional, multifaceted Multi-Power
High Speed Battery Pack MB-40 that offers
up to 8 fps film advance.
It requires either eight AA-size batteries or the
outstanding Rechargeable Li-ion Battery EN-EL4a
(also compatible with the D2 series). The MB-40
offers outstanding vertical shooting operation, as
it incorporates a shutter release button, AF Start
button, Multi-selector and Command Dials.
