Oops, I forgot the F2 Data. Estimates of the number of cameras made vary wildly, but everyone agrees this is a very rare version. It contains the most unbelievable goodies like a tiny Nikon analogue clock, a device for manually setting the shooting date (with Y2K bug built-in ...), and to top it all, a small note board you could annotate by hand. The note board was inserted from the rear of the camera and though ingenious arrangements, the board, the clock, and the date unit, all were flashed onto a section of the film frame. The flash worked from the rear too, and the film was protected from the flash by a small rectangular metal clip discreetly inserted into the film gate itself. As the data back made the camera rather unwieldy, most users (yours truly inclusive) added a motor pack to bring up the heft of the package even further !! however handling improved.
