alfred_alfred Posted October 19, 2002 Share Posted October 19, 2002 Anyone can educate me on DP-3? Seems like it doesn't have metering? and what's it's normally used for? Is this very rare or valuable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd peach seattle, washi Posted October 19, 2002 Share Posted October 19, 2002 It has a meter. Functionally, it's just like the DP-12 meter for the F2AS, except that it's made for non-AI lenses. (The F2/DP-3 combo is known as an F2SB) It's somewhat rare in that it was manufactured for about 1 year (a brief time compared to F2's manufacturing run of ~8 years?). For the right person (someone with an F2, a collection of pre-AI lenses, and a desire for the LED display and low light capable meter) it's a much sought-after item; having said that, they seem to sell for less than the DP-12. www.keh.com has a DP-3 right now in Bargain condition for $265.
