Nikon F2 AS Data
The Nikon F2AS is a variant of Nikon's professional 35mm SLR F2 system, fitted with the DP-12 metering prism that introduced silicon photodiode metering and AI lens coupling. The F2AS Data adds a dedicated MF-10 or MF-11 data back, which imprints date or frame information onto the film for technical, scientific, and documentary use.
Auction data for the F2AS Data is thin: a single UK saleroom record from 2005 shows the model selling at hammer for £1,430, which is well above the price of a standard F2AS body. Buyers researching what an F2AS Data is worth today should treat that figure as an isolated data point rather than a market median, since the configuration trades infrequently and value is highly dependent on which data back is fitted and whether the camera retains its original finish.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher. How this figure is calculated.
Rows marked offer accepted did sell, on the date shown, but eBay does not publish the amount that was accepted. The figure we show is what the seller was asking, so the true sale price was lower — treat it as an upper bound. These rows are excluded from every price range, average and valuation on this site.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Nikon F2AS Data worth today?
Public UK auction evidence is limited to a single hammer result of £1,430, so any current value estimate carries wide uncertainty and depends heavily on cosmetic condition and which data back is fitted.
How much does a Nikon F2AS Data sell for compared to a standard F2AS?
The Data variant typically commands a premium over a plain F2AS because the factory data back is a low-production accessory, though with only one recorded sale the size of that premium cannot be quoted with precision.
Is the price of an F2AS Data sensitive to the data back model?
Yes — the MF-10 and MF-11 backs differ in function and survival rate, and a working back in good cosmetic order materially affects what the camera sells for.
