Background

The Nikon F80 (known as the N80 in some regions), introduced in 2000, was a mid-range autofocus SLR that combined advanced features with a lightweight body. It quickly became popular among serious amateurs and professionals looking for a reliable second body. Offering matrix metering, multiple exposure modes, and compatibility with Nikon’s vast F-mount lens system, the F80 remains a highly capable 35mm film camera.

This copy comes with the dedicated battery grip, providing extended shooting time and improved handling—especially useful when using larger telephoto lenses.

Lens Compatibility & Format

The F80 uses the Nikon F-mount, making it compatible with a wide range of Nikon AF, AF-D, AF-S, and many manual AI/AI-S lenses. It accepts standard 35mm film (color or black & white, 24 or 36 exposures). The camera features auto film advance/rewind, TTL flash metering, and full compatibility with Nikon Speedlights of its era.
