Dear Digest-readers,
I am going to buy a new body to supplement my old,
reliable FE2. I do not need 117 fancy exposure programs,
but I do need the following: Autofocus, compatibility
with Series E lenses, manual override of everything(!),
build-in flash, flah sync 1/250 (as the FE2) or better,
spotmetering, exposure compensation, plus of course the
usual roughness that makes the Nikon a perfect blunt weapon.
My primary use will be shooting people interactions, children,
etc in all climates and weather conditions
with the option of using fill- flash. I do not intent to carry a
camera with a mounted flash with me everywhere.
As far as I can see, I will have to go for the F90/F4 or
the F70, neither having all that I want.. Is the F70 the best
choice if I really want pop-up flash? Are there any arguments
against the pop-up?
Does anyone have good advice/suggestions? And more generally:
Why does none of the "pro"-models have pop-up flash?
