I would like any thoughts, words (good or bad), or critical impressions on the Nikon N90s!
TIA Ed

It was called an F90x in our area and I had one when they first came out. I have large hands and it was very comfortable to hold. I wish it had a built in diopter adjustment but my eyes were younger then so I didn't really need it. The exposure lock button/slider on the back was a pia to use. Other than that I found it a nice camera in use with no real vices. I remember looking at the F100 and thinking the up grade to it was not worth it. Still have it.

The N90s is a nice camera, especially for the price you can get one for now. The focus on the N90s is much quicker than the original N90. The rubberized covering on the back of some of the N90s had a tendency to peel off. The one I had didn't do that. I also would check on the F100. It's newer but might not be much more money the way film camera prices have dropped. But the N90s is a very good camera.

I just got a n90s from a vendor in ebay. The surprises: Shutter and mirror stucked, and the autofocus is not working properly. I´m located in Venezuela, and the returnig cost is over the price paid. Is there any chances of a not too costly repair?.Thanks.

Very good impression. It's been nearly a month now, and the test rolls have been fun. I'm so glad that this camera is finally, affordable. ;D
Not used to shooting so much outside in the cold! Sold my Nikon FE years ago, and wanted a film camera with more modern features. Lenses at this point are Nikon AF D 28-70 F3.5-4.5, and Nikon AF 70-210 F4-5.6.
And, I picked up a very well preserved Argus C3 this week.
