~
Thank you for purchasing the
F4
. We're sure it will make photography more exciting and
rewarding than ever.
With a wealth of exciting new features, the Nikon
F4
is designed to be
as
up to date as
you are in your approach to photography. Ultra-fast autofocus, versatile Matrix Metering,
Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash,
an
unprecedented fast shutter speed of 1/8000 sec. and
fl
a
sh
sync speed of
1/250
sec., top film advance speed of 5.7 fps, are just the beginning of
what you'll discover in this ergonomically designed camera.
At
the same time, the
F4
retains compatibility with virtually all Nikon lenses present and past, and a great many of
the accessories and attachments that make the Nikon System the most comprehens
ive
in all 35mm
SLR
photography.
We
would like to think that the
F4
is not only the fruit of Nikon's commitment to perfec-
tion, but is also Nikon's joint creation with everyone committed to fine photography,
including yourself.
Get to know your
F4
