081-365v4 The Nikon N2020 aka F-501

Mark Seton LRPS CPAGB · 22 March 2021

Today I broke out one of my film cameras, the Nikon N2020 (Nikon F-501 in Europe), I got this very secondhand along with a few old lens…the one attached at the moment is the 35-70mm F3.3 – 4.5.

Released in April 1986 it’s considerable younger than I am…unlike the last film camera I was using earlier this year.

It’s a solid old thing – it actually feels more solid than my Nikon D800. I’ve shot 1 roll of film through it so far so this second roll shot today should be interesting as I understand it’s little quirks a bit better. I should probbaly have used my prime 35mm as I know this old zoom lems isn’t particularly sharp.
