Background

Released in 2000, the Nikon F80 was a mid-range autofocus SLR designed for serious enthusiasts and semi-professionals. It shared many features with Nikon’s professional F100 but in a lighter, more compact body. With advanced 3D Matrix Metering, multiple exposure modes, and full compatibility with Nikon’s extensive F-mount lens lineup, the F80 remains one of the most popular choices for photographers seeking a modern film shooting experience.

Introduced in the late 1980s, this compact standard zoom was designed for versatility across a variety of subjects — from landscapes to portraits. With its lightweight build and dependable autofocus, it pairs beautifully with Nikon’s autofocus film SLRs like the F-401, F-801, F4, and later digital bodies. The optical performance delivers pleasing contrast and color typical of Nikon’s classic AF series lenses.

Usage Notes

The F80 offers a wide selection of modes: Program, Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, and Manual, catering to both beginners and experienced photographers. Its fast and accurate autofocus system, coupled with reliable TTL flash metering, makes it highly versatile. Compact and lightweight, it’s perfect for travel or as a dependable daily 35mm camera.
