Nikon F90
The Nikon F90 is a 35mm autofocus SLR introduced in 1992, sold as the N90 in the North American market. Aimed at advanced amateurs and working photographers, it sat below Nikon's professional F4 in the line-up while using the same Nikon F lens mount.
At UK auction in recent years, hammer prices for the F90 body have ranged from around £25 to £180, with a median closer to £50 — wholesale saleroom levels rather than dealer retail. As of 2026, what an F90 is worth depends heavily on cosmetic condition, whether the rubber grip covering has gone sticky, and whether a working back and battery door are present; clean, fully-functional examples sell for noticeably more than tired bodies.
