Nikon F-601 35mm Film SLR with Sigma AF Macro 50mm f/2.8 - Good Condition | High-Performance 1990s Analog SLR Kit Featuring Advanced Matrix Metering and 1:1 True Macro Prime Lens

Introductory Paragraph The Nikon F-601 (also known as the N6006), paired with the razor-sharp Sigma AF Macro 50mm f/2.8 prime lens, is an exceptionally versatile and capable 35mm autofocus film SLR kit. Celebrated for its advanced 5-segment Matrix Metering system and powerful built-in pop-up flash, the F-601 body handles complex lighting conditions with professional precision. Combined with the high-performance Sigma 50mm f/2.8 Macro lens, this setup allows you to seamlessly transition from standard eye-level street portraiture to breathtaking, life-sized 1:1 close-up photography. This Nikon and Sigma combination serves as an honest, highly scannable, and deeply rewarding creative tool for students, macro enthusiasts, and serious analog documentarians alike.

Key Features

• Advanced 5-segment Matrix Metering matrix, evaluating scene brightness values intelligently to ensure balanced film exposures.

• High-performance Sigma 50mm f/2.8 AF Macro prime optics, delivering outstanding edge-to-edge resolution and true 1:1 macro magnification.

• Predictive electronic phase-detection autofocus tracking, locking onto moving subjects quickly throughout the creative framing window.

• Complete multi-mode creative exposure array, supporting Manual, Aperture-Priority, Shutter-Priority, and fully automated Programs.

• Comprehensive top-plate status information LCD display, providing real-time verification of active shutter speeds, apertures, and battery life.

• Integrated high-intensity pop-up electronic speedlight flash, offering matrix-balanced daytime fill-flash and nighttime exposure assistance.

• Motorized automatic film advance and power rewind loops, taking the guesswork out of loading while securing the film transport path.

Condition Report Good condition. Body: Shows standard cosmetic signs of previous light use, including minor superficial scuffs on the matte black polycarbonate exterior shell and typical faint bright marks on the baseplate from normal handling. The battery compartment and film chamber are clean. Sensor/Optics: The reflex mirror, clear focusing screen, and optical pentaprism path are bright and clean. The attached Sigma 50mm macro lens elements are free from internal fungus, heavy haze, optical separation, or deep glass scratches; standard minimal micro-dust is visible under close inspection light but does not alter image quality. Mechanics/Electronics: Fully operational. The electronic shutter fires crisply and accurately across all speeds, the autofocus motor drives quickly, the manual focus ring tracks smoothly, the aperture blades are snappy, and the built-in flash triggers reliably.

Specialist Note "The F-601 is widely celebrated as one of Nikon’s most feature-packed consumer film SLRs from the early 90s, boasting a metering system that is incredibly accurate for slide and color-negative films. What makes this particular kit an absolute treasure is the Sigma 50mm f/2.8 macro lens. This isn't just a standard standard prime—it's a dedicated macro powerhouse that lets you get close enough to fill the entire 35mm frame with a single flower petal or coin, retaining pin-sharp clarity. It is a completely transparent, satisfyingly tactile setup that offers incredible optical flexibility for any analog project."
