Autofocus F-mount 35mm SLR camera released by Nikon in 1988. The F4 is a pro-grade body with weather sealing, PSAM + Ph exposure modes, matrix metering with switchable center-weighted as well as spot modes, and a single point AF. It was the second professional autofocus camera Nikon made. All Nikon lenses are compatible with the F4 except the G-series lenses, which only work in program and shutter-priority modes. Image stabilization on VR lenses also cannot be activated. Matrix metering is supported even with the older AI and AI-S manual focus lenses. While all F4 bodies can take any of the three available battery grips, Nikon named the bodies differently depending on which grip the camera came with from the factory. Bodies are still identical across all variations: F4 (MB-20 w/ 4 batteries), F4s (MB-21 w/ 6 batteries), and F4e (MB-23 w/ 8 batteries). Other features include a self-timer, mirror lock-up, AE and AF lock buttons, automatic film rewind, 1/250s flash sync, and +/-2 exposure compensation. Metal and plastic body available in black.
