It’s easy, no stick, no mess. Just plop it wherever you want on your dash and clip in the gps. I was told about the friction mount by a friend and purchased it on her recommendation. I love it too and have since told my friends. It works!

I purchased the F5 a year ago and this is what I think. I take better pictures with the F5, let me clarify, at an air show, while whale watching and of course all the people shots I would have missed if it were not for the speed of the auto focus and the wonderful metering system. If it sounds like I use the camera as point and shoot camera sometimes I do exactly that. I think it is one of the attributes of this camera the ability to get the shot, quickly and accurately.

Weigh: The F5 is a heavy camera but I like the weight and feel of the camera. I think because of the weight the camera balances nicely in your hands and the F5 is a dream to hold. I am able to hand held this camera at a lower shutter speed than I could with other cameras. The craftsmanship is superb and I enjoy how well the F5 is made.

Familiar Controls: I like the ability to go from one Nikon to another and most of the controls seemed familiar.

Weather Sealing: I have taken the F5 while on a sailboat in Kauai in 15 foot swells hanging on to the boat with one hand and just pointing the camera with the other (program mode) and guess what I got some good shots. I don’t hesitate using this camera in adverse weather conditions and just wipe and clean it.

The F5 was introduced in 1996 and was a top of the line 35mm camera and in 2004 it still is the top of the line. I know other manufactures make great cameras but eight years later this camera is still at the top of the list. This camera will be that last film camera that I own. It is not because I’m going digital, because I’m not at the moment. It is because this is simply the best film camera you can purchase from Nikon and it just might be the best film camera you can own.

I loved this book! Read it on my Kindle in bed and got little sleep until I finished. The story reveals the truth about paid servants in The South, what they heard and saw, and the racism revealed long after civil rights legislation was passed, reminiscent of the plight of blacks after the Civil War. Dialect is perfect, characters are fully developed–we know all the types! Incredible as it sounds, hypocrisy like this and wannabes still exhibit the same behavior shown in how actually low-class whites still treat paid servants, either black or white.
