Details

The Nikon F-501 was Nikon's first AF-SLR camera for amateur photographers, released in 1986. (The Nikon F3 AF for professional photographers preceded the F-501 in 1983). The camera body of the F-501 is pressed from dycast aluminum, making it very solidly built. Simultaneously with the introduction of the Nikon F-501 in 1986, a new series of Nikkor AF lenses was also introduced. This F-501 has such a new AF-Nikkor standard zoom lens with the popular range of 35 to 70 mm. (The old type of AF lenses for the F3-AF did not yet have a built-in AF CPU so they were slower on the F-501).
