My F100 is great on batteries, even when not shooting. I'd service your battery compartment, check for corrosion, and if needed get a new battery holder/door unit (Nikon MS-12). They are about $20 bucks on B and H. That might fix your issue honestly. Thanks for sharing!
That’s a great idea! Thanks for the model number that will definitely come in handy - I’m pretty sure you’re right that it has something to do with the battery compartment
Just coming across your channel now. Sad to see there’s no videos from 2 years, you do a great job. Subbing anyway
appreciated, maybe i should come back!
I have two-they are a joy to use, but be gentle with the back latch.
I love the F100. I have one for black & white film and another one for color film.
getting mine with a grip tomorrow :D i'm excited, first time shooting film for me, I'm switching schools and going to study photography after the holidays and I needed a film camera for that so I went with a barely used F100 + grip for €250 so i think I got a very good deal (imo)
For sure. Definitely a good deal! Make some dope photos man!
would love to see more videos from you!
I also have an f100 and I really like it a lot. Looking to get a Nikon f6 soon because Id like to shoot all my paid non event style photoshoots on film. I also just picked up a Mamiya 645 af and that's a super great camera. Autofocus 2.8 medium format glass is great. I'd recommend that over the big 6x7 cameras because it's just so much more versatile.
For sure. The 645 af is a great camera.
I ♥ my F100!
I have an F100 and like others have said, no issue with battery consumption. I have too many other film cameras to list but will say my favorite 35mm camera is the Nikon FM3a and my favorite medium format camera is the Hasselblad 500CM. I enjoyed this video. Thank you. 🙏🏽
Eyy f100 gang ! Eyyy yoooo big pause 🤣. Deff had to sub after brother.
I got a f100 just over a month ago on Ebay from Japan but I've no problem with battery life ok the first film is still in it but I must have dry fired well over 300 shots making sure everything was working shutter, meter, autofocus ect and the battery life is still showing full power with Energizer max plus.
Yeah I don’t really have problem with the battery while shooting, it just seems to burn a lot of battery while I’m NOT using it.
Maybe there’s something wrong with the contacts on the battery slot 🤷🏽♂️ hard to tell with these old cameras. Haha
@@jwescophotography8182 nothing went through battery's quicker than my old minolta 7xi and 2cr5's aren't cheap. It might be a bad connection, the battery holder or even a brand of battery's the camera doesn't like lol and even user error, my old Nikon D7100 went through a phase when the battery's would die quickly and I released I was accidentally turning on the camera when I put it away in my camera bag and hadn't noticed it, it is annoying and it could be anything even something simple.
Haha yeah for sure. I’ll definitely have to get it looked at
Hey,
Great video. The f100 is also my favorite camera.
For you AA battery problem It’s weird. My batteries last forever.
Hey! Thanks for the input. I think I’m gonna have to get it looked at and see if there’s an issue with the battery door or something
@@jwescophotography8182 dude i second this...my batteries last forever in my f100
I actually dropped mine off to get looked at today! Hopefully I’ll be in good shape soon!
I’ve had this camera for a few years, love it. The back door latch just broke on me and it’s almost impossible to find a replacement. Help is appreciated! For now it’ll just be taped shut 🤷🏻♂️
You can purchase a spare back door from eBay. I purchased two. They are quite cheap.
Had an f6. Downgraded to f100 because l needed money… l miss the f6 it felt sturdier than the f100 l currently own. The f6 film compartment oxidized after leaving the camera loaded with film and unused for 4 month in my car, my mistake l guess. Nevertheless this misshaped made me realize that the f6 will not last forever and l should think of using something cheaper and more disposable because they all eventually end up as paperweight anyway…
Came across your video, have both the pentax and F100, would have loved to see some of your film photography
I’ll definitely share some in a future video!
Nice video. OUCH! though don't turn the focussing ring on an AFD lens unless you've got it in manual focus its not good fo the lens and gearing. AA batteries - get some Eneloop rechargeables... great batteries and they don't drain much when not in use / stored - you might have better results with those. MF wise - P67 is great - I had one but you've got to really want/need that negative size. Film prices going up and and you are chugging a hell of a weighty camera around. I got sick of it and I sold mine and got a Pentax 645n instead great camera again - but without that big neg / 67 factor more and more I just go back the camera I enjoy carrying... the F100.
Thanks for the Info and for stopping by, Rick!
The comment you made about the F100 eating batteries is not true...well at least for me. I have two F100's and have had no problems with the batteries. As a matter of fact I have left my batteries in the camera for weeks at a time...no problems.
Just got mine a week ago and it feels like titties in my hands. If titties were bricks oc cuz that thing’s a THANK! Love it so much. I just paired it with the 35-70 2.8D and i now feel complete.
I don't have battery issues at all..
There might be something wrong with your copy if it's going through batteries that fast.
Something must be wrong with you F100. I change the AA batteries in my F100 maybe once a year.
Yeah, I’m gonna have to get mine looked at. I was at a shoot yesterday, and the batteries are dead within 24 hours 😭
@@jwescophotography8182 yeah something is up with you camera. The worst problem I ever had with the F100 and batteries is that batteries were too low to rewind the film one time. Other than that no problems.
Yeah I’m gonna take it to repair. Might just need to find a new battery tray
Review is good but too loud and too long intro
No, not non-AI!!
Nobodys interested with overall info. Show what the fk you have shot. Still giving like and still subscribe. But come on man… put some footage.
I had this film camera. I can hardly say "my favorite" because I never had another 35 mm SLR with which I could compare it.
Suffice it to say that the Nikon F100 camera was surely a hell of a lot of camera for the money spent.
If not for the explosion of digital camera in recent decades, I would never have sold this camera.
I also had a Mamiya 6 medium format film camera which I used in place of the Nikon F100 in situations when it made no sense to use a 35 mm camera.
