Nikon F5 Boxed as New ~ Only Ever Shot ONE Film!!!

Has to been seen to believed I guess but yes it’s true, this camera has shot ONE film only in it’s entire life.

(Update:  to test the new Flic Aurora 400 we shot half a roll in this lovely camera using the 18mm AFD we have for sale and what an amazing combo that is!!)

How do we know that?

Well it comes from a guy who been a customer for more than ten years.  An avid Nikon fan he collected anything he could but everything had to be perfect.  Back in the 1990s he bought two, this one was as a spare.  (Why you’d not trust and F5 to the extent of wanting a spare I don’t know!)

Much as he loves his Nikon gear he only wants to be shooting everything on his beloved D3…but, as we all know, film cameras don’t like sitting around doing nothing for years on end so we pursuaded him that this needed a roll through it, if nothing else just to make sure it was okay after all the time on the shelf.

Of course, it was perfect but alas, we still couldn’t tempt him to shoot more film!

Despite this, and because of this, we’ve had it given the once over by our genius engineeer.

Thus, any inspection is welcome.  When you see it you’ll see exactly that the above is completely factual, this IS essentially a new camera.  Simple as that.

We’ve bought some more Nikon goodies from this chap, mostly unused in original boxes so do take a look around this website,..
