Late model Nikon F6 search

[Deleted member 95430]

Hello hello

I'm looking at buying a recent Nikon F6 since they were sold up to 2020. Does anyone have a good resource for what the serials numbers should be on the later models? Lots of models in Japan and some at good prices
Anywhere in the UK that sells them?
Someone somewhere must have that great New Old Stocl (NOS)

Thanks

The only place I could think of that has New/Old Stock would be Grays Of Westminister but I have not seen them advertise one of those for some time.

They do have an unboxed one in on their website at £1500.

Other than that you could try ringing LCE or FFordes but Nikon F6 are rare.

As for Serial Numbers list no idea, had a Google but did not find anything really useful.

I assume you looking for a UK one?
Apart from that only other place you may find New/Old Stock is Japan.

Happy hunting.

After a bit more a Google fun I found this on Serial Numbers may or may not be useful.

Nikon F6 Camera Serial Numbers

Hello, here is a short report about the current production of the Nikon F6 in Nikon's plant in Sendai: In autumn 2007 there has been a quite long report about Nikon's Sendai plant in the french photo magazine 'Chasseur d'Image'. At that time about 200 F6 has been built monthly. The Sendai plant...

Worth keeping an eye on the usedlens site which is currently showing one at Grays and a better? condition one at Camtech. I've no experience of either company, and no idea of the camera's age.

I've been looking for one for about eighteen months now, but it seems people are reluctant to part with them.

In use, I'm happy with the F5 (for studio) and the F3 (for street), but I'd like to pick up an F6 so I have the full collection (F, F2, F3, F4, F5 and F6).

If I can't get one by the end of the year, I suppose I'll have to get one from Japan and accept the extra import charges etc.

Yeah as usual the selection from Japan is great but that import tax is steep! I have relatives in the us tho maybe I can get them to sign up to ebay
