Nikon F4 Film Cameras

Add a Nikon F4 Camera to Your Photography Equipment

Nikon's F4 camera is an autofocus SLR that uses the 35-millimeter format. This 35mm film camera is the first professional-grade unit in Nikon's lineup to feature an autofocus feature. There are several other features, accessories, and options for the Nikon F4 for sale that you can explore on eBay.

What are the benefits of an autofocus system?

The Nikon F4 features an autofocus system that can help you improve the quality of your photographs. A sensor inside the F4 works in conjunction with a small motor to shift focus to your subject. Although the focus is happening automatically, you can select the scene or subject of your photo manually if you wish. There are two primary types of autofocus:

• Active: If the Nikon F4 is using an active autofocus system, it will ignore the optics of the camera as it measures the distance to your subject. Once the system takes a measurement, it will adjust the optics to match it.
• Passive: This type of autofocus system will analyze the imagery entering the optical field, but it will not direct energy toward a subject or make changes to the optics by itself.
