Hi I am thinking of building a "database" with manufacturing date by serial number for the Nikon F3. So every one that has bought a new Nikon F3, please send me the serial number for the camera, the year then you bought the camera and the model of the F3; non-HP, HP, P (Press), and Titanium (Champaign/Black). Please do not replay to the Nikon Mailing List, but send them as eMail to me personally instead. You are able to se the progress on my webpage, <http://www.cs.kau.se/~nicke/private/photo>. -- Nicke
