Hi Leonard, I am a great fan of the Nikon F2 SLR cameras and I have many rare versions
in my collection. Here is a picture of the custom made gold plated F2 I own, and
you have my permission to host it on your site. I bought it from Sweden. I think
it was made for a rich client, who actually used it a fair bit after the plating.
Who ever made this F2 gold plated everything. eg the Strap eyelets, camera and lens
mounts. What amazes me is that the camera was used by someone. I don't know who though.
The Swedish Royal family ?
