bradfarlow Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I just finished releathering my Nikon F. I wanted a unique look, so I went with "Coral" (aka Pink) from cameraleather.com and I was amazed how easy it was. Thought I'd post the results so here goes. I know some people don't like anything that differs from the norm, but I think it's great.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albert_smith Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 <I>I wanted a unique look, so I went with "Coral" (aka Pink)...</I><P> Wow! I can't see myself doing that to my Black (and brass) pointy prism F, but it sure does looks unique for a 1960s camera with such a pedigree. Maybe it is the chrome and pink that works.<P> These days with all of the "flavor of the month" colorful digital cameras out there, you might not stand out in a crowd like you might have when the F was king. People might be shocked that you are shooting film more than the color of your camera. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex_lofquist Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I can imagine some fashion designers coveting the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsontsoi Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Brad, Mike Meyer will be calling you up to use it in the 4th episode of Austin Power, ("Coral Eye," "Pink-raker," "F are Forever," etc.) It's too bad that Peter Seller isn't around anymore since he could've made good use of it in one of the Pink Panther movies. Happy Thanksgiving! ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary_watson Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Very swank, Brad. All you need now is a pink '59 Caddy Coupe deVille to round out the look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrz80 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Now all you need is a Hello Kitty emblem on it somewhere. Seriously, I'd never do something that outlandish to my ancient F, but it *does* look like you did a darned good job of it. Nice to see the old battleaxe still in use.
