Nikon F2S Data

The Nikon F2S Data is a variant of the Nikon F2 35mm professional SLR system, fitted with the MF-1 250-exposure data back. It was aimed at scientific, technical, and press users who needed long film runs with frame imprinting.

Auction data for this specific configuration is extremely thin, so a reliable current value is hard to pin down today; the only logged UK saleroom hammer result is £1,600 from 2007, which sits well above the price a standard F2S body sells for. Because that figure is a single wholesale auction result rather than a retail asking price, and it predates the current collector market, treat it as indicative only when judging what an F2S Data is worth now. Condition of the MF-1 back, completeness of the data module, and a working DP-2 finder are the main factors that move price.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Nikon F2S Data worth today?

Auction evidence is very limited: the one recorded UK hammer price is £1,600, but that single data point is too old and too isolated to set a firm current value.

How much does a Nikon F2S Data sell for compared with a standard F2S?

The data-back configuration typically commands a premium over a plain F2S because the MF-1 250-exposure back and matching cassettes are uncommon, though thin sales history makes the exact uplift hard to quantify.

Why is the price of an F2S Data hard to estimate?

Only one verified UK auction result exists in our records, so any value figure is indicative rather than a reliable market median.
