General Comments

Excellent camera, before I owned a Pentax SFx I always dreamed of owning a Nikon and the price of the F65 for it's features was excellent it's the best camera I have owned to date. I hope it will last as long as my old Pentax. It is also worth the upgrade as I have done to a type D lens which allows spot metering.

    Well the reason it's light and cheap is that it's mostly plastic - both outside and inside. Plastic tends to break, especially moving parts, and when it does, it usually can't be repaired. After a few years the electronics and LCD screen also go bonkers and you have a paperweight. As one of my friends put it, "There are new AF camera owners, and there are old camera owners, but there are no old AF camera owners!!"

    How does using a D-type lens allow spot-metering? I assumed that the camera only allowed centre-weighted or matrix metering.
