Nikon F3
The F3 was Nikon's professional 35mm SLR from 1980 to 2001, succeeding the F2 and serving as the primary camera of photojournalists for two decades. Its titanium shutter curtain was rated for 150,000 cycles, and the modular design accepted interchangeable viewfinders, motor drives, and data backs. It was the dominant tool in conflict photography through the 1980s and early 1990s.

Documentary ↗“Newton used Nikon 35mm cameras, including the F3, for his location and available-light work; his preference for Nikon over medium format for certain shoots is documented in multiple interviews and in "Autobiography" (2003), where he describes his preference for the immediacy of 35mm for work outside the studio.”
