It will be my first camera i own. I fell in love with the nikon F when i laid my eyes on it in a movie. It may sound silly, but ill be taking photos with it all the time.eventually ill upgrade to a more modern dslr, but for now i so want a Nikon F. Thanks for your time, and if anyone haves photos that you tooked from a Nikons F, please share them. It would be lovely and push me further to what i want to accomplish.

The Nikon F (and F2) are 35mm film SLRs, not digital, with the F dating back to 1957. The correct lenses won't even fit digital (although they can be modified to do so).

Although a very nice piece of kit, the bodies, viewfinders and lenses are horrendously expensive because they are collector's pieces and much sought-after.

A cheaper alternative would be the all-manual FM and FM2 or the electronic FE and FE2 (these offer aperture-priority automation as well as metered manual exposure like the FM).

If you want digital, rather than film, look at the D3000/D5000 series, but there are many alternatives.
