>>3603220200 bucks for an F-1 sounds pricy.
I've a 1972 model. It's a good, solid feeling camera but it's also prone to little niggles like all old machinery. There's corrosion in the prism, the shutter caps on the 1/2000 speed and the 1 sec speed is more like 'somewhere between 1 and 100 seconds'.
But it feels good in the hand.
You'll need to get a voltage adapter for the lightmeter - or get it modified, but it's still solid and the spotmeter is good when it's calibrated. Mine's been reworked for 1.5v.
They're good workhorse cameras and they aren't quite meme-tier yet like the AE1's and the like.
