Mostly possibly all Velvia (yeah, I know, me d#mb for using Velvia for people shots). These were from a F90X as well, a different copy than I have today.Ĭonsumer lens, not sure which, but I remember was a variable aperture consumer zoom. I found some shots from 12 years ago when I tried film for a brief period. Guys, it will take a while before I do my own tests. AF systems have seen a substantial progress in the past decades. It is quite reliable for its age, even with action, but I wouldn't try to shoot action with a very fast lens wide open. This camera has the most advanced AF system of Canon's last film SLR generation. Not sure if you can do that by your own in the F90x.įootnote: I am in the Canon ecosystem and use a about 20 yrs old EOS 3 aside with my DSLRs. Plus, don't forget that your lenses may need an AF micro adjustment in the camera to focus precisely. If AF is so crucial for you, I'd highly recommend to look for a used Nikon F5/6, you seem to be okay with a bigger two-grip pro body. Canon had already switched completely to in-lens AF drives with their EF mount. But because of those AF drives with in-camera motors that Nikon implemented back then, it was substantially slower focusing than the competing Canon semipro/pro SLRs of that time. To my knowledge, the 90Fx was the fastest focusing Nikon of its time until the F5 came out. I think the standard focusing screen of the F90x is be quite good for manual focusing. But she mainly focuses those analogue SLRs manually, she is a really skilled after many years of photography. She later got a very good used one as a back-up. My wife has two F90x bodies for her Nikon gear, her first one being heavily used for a couple of years.
