The best pro camera at the time and arguably the most beautiful ever.. Loading and unloading the film is however vintage. My preference goes to the Nikon F2, which I regard as the ultimate.

She had to quit her job and work as a model in Europe since the war. She wears beautiful woollen artwork made at my home by an elderly other Ukrainian woman refugee.
