I have an oportunity is buy a mildly used F4 for a fair price (with a nice lens) but the camera has developed an issue. After rewinding the film and remove the canister, the camera has now hung. It will no longer autofocus, meter or fire the shutter in any mode. Some LCD info is evident in the veiwfinder. A red LED on the top left of the camera blinks non-stop. This, eventually, drains the batteries and nothing I try solves the issue of non-function.

Any ideas? Has anyone else had this issue?

Nikon F4S body in great condition SN 95xxxx (late model). Camera in great shape--not a beater. One minor scuff on lower back trim. No dents or dings. Everything works perfectly. The F4 is great because it works with either AF or MF lenses.

Also included is the MB-20 grip that makes the body considerably smaller. The camera (in both forms) can be seen at

http://home.att.net/~wayne.cornell/camera/nikon.html (bottom of the page).

Also included is the original focusing screen and the screen with the 45-degree split image.

I'm asking $350 for the camera , MB-20 grip and two screens (plus shipping). I'm not interested in selling the MB-20 separately (highly sought after item).

I also would consider a trade for a Nikkor AFD zoom of comparable value in the WA to medium focal length.

We have a few Nikon D2Xs camera's and I'm Trying to find the Camera Chip fix so that I can over ride the shutter speed so that I can have a flash sync speed of 640 or higher. Can anyone direct me to a company that sells the chip or program to fix the camera to solve my problem.

Thanks

Which Nikon F4s's should be avoided by their serial number sequence? Now that I can afford my dream camera, I'm wondering which ones I shouldn't purchase. The f4s reviews that listed this information in photo.net are no longer posted, making room for newer models. This is a muscle car of cameras and still excites me today, I just want to avoid the lemons if at all possible.

I guess one day, all these posting on Q&A will become incredibly useful for a new F4 collector or photographer. Thanks for sharing all the thoughts, I have read them all.

This past weekend the shutter of my F4 acted as tho it was sluggish or delayed.
The camera was mounted on a tripod using the Nikkor 500mm F4 P lens and a Nikon 1.4 extender and fired using a Nikon mechanical cable release. Shutter speed was 1/250 at F5.6, aperature priority, OAT about 68 degrees and if I remember right, the mirror was up both times. The first time it happened, I thought huh... maybe it was just me? After a few more shots, it happened again, same thing. I checked the cable release and no problem found.
This problem only happened with this lens and extender combination. Didnt happen with any of the other lenses in use or the 500mm lens without the extender.
Can anyone tell me what may have been or what is the likely problem?
Thanks.

I am in the unenviable position of having to sell my Nikon F4s. The camera body has Serial No.2428860 and comes with a wide variety of lenses and accessories.
The system is housed in a 1600 Series Pelican Case and includes:
SB15 & SB24 Flash, remote & cords, MF23 Multi Data Back, MF 21 Battery Pack, 2X teleconverter, 18mm Tameron Fish Eye, 24mm Nikkor AF Wide Angle, 50mm Nikkor, 500mm Tamron SP Photodioptric [Mirror c/w Macro], 28-85mm Nikkor AF, 75-300mm Nikkor AF, Tameron SP 200-500 Telephoto [f5.6].

Asking $2000 [negotiable and open to reasonable offers]. The equipment is in excellent condition.I would prefer to find a buyer who will appreciate it. The camera has been serviced by Nikon and operates flawlessly. There are no scratches or heavy wear on the camera or lenses.
Owner is motivated to sell.
