Specialist Note "The Nikon F50 (S/N: 2846766) is often overlooked, but it is a remarkably solid performer. What I find fascinating is the interface; it was Nikon's attempt to make a high-end SLR feel as inviting as a compact camera. In 'Simple' mode, it's virtually foolproof, but flip it to 'Advanced' and you have a serious photographic tool in your hands. The matrix meter in this era of Nikon cameras is exceptionally good—it handles backlit scenes better than many modern digital entry-level cameras. It’s a sturdy, dependable workhorse that feels great in the hand and delivers that unmistakable Nikon image quality on every frame."
