Very easy to use after a quick look of the manual functions.

Easy film change between color and b&w films (mid-roll rewind possible by pressing two film rewind buttons), a nice function if you want experiencing diferent aproaches of the same subject at the moment.

A very complete Vari-program, making excelent sillouette photos, and sepia photos with color films.

Exposure metering: Matrix, Centre-Weighted and Spot;

Focus Tracking with Lock-On.

The first camera based on APS system.

A little bit heavy, besides the fact that this kind of cameras have been descontinued.

Nikon pronea 6i a fantastic camera that I love to use even now. It's still easy to find IX240 film cartridges in Kodak stores or online www.officedepot.com a Kodak® 200 Speed Advantix Film, Pack Of 3. We can also find black & white films ISO 200 and 400 as in color films.
I have two lenses IX Nikkor 24-70mm 1:3.5-5.6 35mm 1.2ft, the original, and an AF Nikkor 75-240mm 1:4.5-5.6D and several filters. It's still amazing the quality photos I can take with this camera.

Takes beautiful photos very happy with it after all this time.

The film by memory was hard and might be harder ow to found hoprfully not.

Just found my camra of many years and still love it but i forgot what film can be used for it i know its fuji but unsre of the specifics if anyone could help would be greatly appreciated

Lightweight, clear, sharp pictures, easy to use.

non-accpetance of non-fuji film.

I bought the camera and 70-180 zoom lens, and have found the camera to take excellent pictures. It is very light, compact, and the pictures are very sharp. I am a bit disappointed that it is difficult to get quality developing for b/w films locally, and have reverted to my 35mm for that. Also, this camera only seems to accept Fuji film, and when I try to load Kodak or another type of film, it gives me a loading error and marks the film as fully exposed. Needless to say, this is quite frustrating when you're on vacation and can only find Kodak film.

solid construction features flash

APS film selection. No DOF preview. LCD panel hard to read in dim light

This is one of Nikon's finest instruments made in the last five years. The feel of it in one's hand is solid. The dials are clear but I wish the LCD was back lit. I got an N65 recently, and it feels like a toy compared to the Pronea. You can find this camera on Ebay, but APS film stock is too limited. I do not recommend you buy it for that reason. Still, it's a keeper for me because I don't need to sell it for peanuts. And I use it primarily for snapshots at social events.

it''s a Nikon...dude!!! An APS/SLR, with all the features of the N70. Its topps, and the feel is so superb. Just a great machine.

Hard to find, but worth the look. The only weakness i see is the viewfinder, placement...a minor thing, and the batteries...CR123, so costly...But like I said, It''s a Nikon....dude...and its a great camera still.

Nikon "strikes", again, with this camera, the APS version of the N70. This is a powerful machine. With all the features that a beginner, to a seasoned pro, would love. Then there is that mid-roll changeover, which is a great benefit for those, different ISO changes. The power of a Nikon 35mm SLR, in the APS format. This is the top APS camera, on the market, and most of all it''s a Nikon...dude!!!! If you can find one get it. The film development is a bit more costly, than 35mm, but for all the power, and quality results, the cost is worth it. The APS format was looked at with negative eyes, but because of it''s versatility, even with it''s lack of ISO speeds;, this format is cathching the eye of many consumers, today. Even with the Pronea 6i, being discontinued, it lives on with the introduction of the Pronea S. Nikon has taken a big step with this machine. And no matter the negative reviews, they have created a "monster" with this camera, and the stepping out into this format. I have shot four wedding with my Pronea 6i, and the quality was "superb". One of the weddings was shot in almost complete darkness, and with the on board speedlight. This machine performed. My clients were overwhelmed with the results, and so was I. There is so much to play with, and if you area a techno nut, then this baby is for you. Get one if you can, and enjoy!!!! Mine came with the Nikkor 24-70 lens, and I added a Nikkor 70-210, and I have more APS for the "buck". This is APS supremacy, but it''s a Nikon....dude!!!!

Ease of use in basic mode, and multitude of features and options available in advanced/manual mode. Interchangeable Nikon lenses and flashes. Nikon reputation and quality.

The LCD panel on the back is fragile - be careful not to bump it - I did and it bled, and cost $180 to fix. Battery life has been OK. Selection of APS films is limited.

I bought this camera on a whim, after finding it for a great price at Ritz. I have not been disappointed with the results I''ve obtained with this camera, which has mostly been for pictures of scenery or family events.

As above - $180 to replace damaged LCD panel (my fault).

Easy to use. Basicly fool proof. Use as a point and shoot or switch it to advanced and have control over most if not all camera functions

None that I have noticed. Used Fugi Nexia 200 and the pictures came out kind of grainy. Now I'm trying Kodak Advantix 200

Good Camera for the money if you can still get the body and 24-75mm IX lens from Ritzcamera.

Almost idiot proof. Just piont and click. If you take the time to get to know the camera it offers a lot of features in advanced mode.

If you think that AF photography is for wimps, there is plenty on offer in manual mode.

some people might find it a bit chunky. Personally of all the APS cameras I tried the Pronea 600i (UK version)felt like a camera should. Solid!

In the UK processing is almost twice as expensive as standard 35mm

The price is very competative (for the UK), it is possible to buy the Pronea 600i with a 24-70 ix lens for about $300. The 20-60 ix lens can be bought for $150 and the 60-180 ix lens for $225. You do have to look however.

The price I paid for mine included an immaculate s/h 60-180 ix lens, as well as a 24-70 ix lens.

I managed to pick up a fujifilm APS scanner for $150 it may not be brillian but it allows me to upload pictures taken to my website. The next least expensive though higher quality scanner is about $700. Something to think about if you want to use any pictures taken with an APS camera on the web.

The camera is of a good build with plenty of features for the novice and the professional,and what is there to fault with the quality of the Nikon ix lenses

Customer Service

On occassion when I try to re-use a partially exposed film it moves the indicator to 3, meaning all negatives have been exposed. To solve this I just use a pionted object to move the indicator back to 2. The shop where I bought the camera said that they would send it off to Nikon to check if I wanted to. I chose not to but the offer is still there if I need it.

Very good APS camera. It has all the features for beginners and pros.

Depth of Field preview is not available. IX lens are not compatible with other models.

A great camera to start with. I have started learning photography with this camera. As I learn a new thing I could try on this camera. It has all the features you can dream of. APS is a plus.

I find it interesting that Nikon missed their market with this camera. (APS buyers were apparently not looking for a high end solution.) I purchased this unit as a "rebuilt" (probably a polite dumping of the discontinued product inventory). But it is fabulous. I am stunned at the available functions and picture quality given what I paid for it ...
