I have an F3 which was 2 generations after the F. It is hands down, the best looking, the best feeling and the best sounding camera I have.
The camera was so successful it was in production for 20 years from 1980 - 2000. That kind of a run is unheard of in today’s tech environment. In fact, it’s successor, the F4, was released while the F3 was still being sold (1988) and was discontinued (1997) before the F3.
