In
March of 2000, I was thinking about getting a new camera. Since I am student,
I didn't have much money, but I still wanted a modern, well-built camera.
As a previous owner of the Nikon EM and the Nikon FG-20, I was very pleased
with their quality. Eventually I came to the conclusion that the Nikon
N8008 (or F-801 internationally) was, by far, the best value for the best price.
Unfortunately for me, it took a lot of time to gather enough information in
order to discover this great camera. I made this website with the intent
of making a reliable, and accurate guide in order to help future camera buyers.
Have fun!
