Denton ,
I'm certainly not gonna base my opinion on just one fellows experience,but
the strange thing is,I found this guy on a Nikon web site [below] of all
places. I was pretty shocked.It was the first time I ever heard anything bad
said against it. I'm sure there are a lot of happy photogs out there with
the F5. By the way,the new Nikon N80 coming out soon was on the personal
favorite wish list of mine.
[multi spot metering I hear] After reading grumpys account of Nikons AF I
began to wonder.
No flame wars intended. Thanks!
J.S.

Talk about auto focus working sporadically,I foud a site where this guy
went and bought the Nikon F5.He shoots trains as a hobby.He gives a
blistering account of his experience with the F5s autofocus.
This guy was BITTER.He owned 2 of them and sold them at a loss.
Check out his input.

Based on my personal experience with two F5's, the above is a bunch of BS.
Furthermore, pros would have dumped the F5 en masse if what he writes was
true.
