If nobody has previously metioned this. The basic chassy for this camera was the Nikon N80 film camera. At that time I tagged along with a freelnce photographer friend to shoot a job at a factory in Altoona PA. He was shooting film at the time but he borrowed a D100 from another photographer friend. He ended up using the D100. The results were terrific. Some were used in a publication. Carmine, your channel is one of the most sincere and helpful on You Yube.
I don't know how the algorithm missed you after all these years as I mostly watched travel and photography on RUclips. You, sir, are a true gem! I had already pressed _subscribe_ when you mentioned the built-in flash hot shoe diffuser! Already looking for one online. I never ever shoot with a flash but if I choose to in the future (probably macro) I will take advantage of the built-in flash and not be annoyed with shadows! I am watching this because I just purchased a D100 that should be arriving any day. $30 from MPB with two new batteries and a wall charger!! I think I'm still in the market for a D200 listening to all the advice online but this D100 is going to be a fun basics lesson in DSLR photography after amateur shooting with mirrorless the last few years.
@@CarmineTavernaPhotography honestly, already have! (But thank you!) Just an "enthusiast/amateur" but I started out with Nikon before spending the last decade with Canon and I must say Nikon is fantastic at keeping manuals of discontinued cameras online!
Once knew a guy named Pimothy who LOVED these old Nikon digital cameras. He’s with the lord now. God bless him. 😇✝️🙏 Anyway LOVED ❤ the vid as always Carm. ☺️
Still have mine from new with a 24 - 120 f3.5-f5.6, I don't think DX lens even existed then we used film camera lenses. Just started using again with 18 - 55 f3.5 - f5.6 GII still a great camera.
The best of the best video posts l like the way you explain the details in a very simple and so photo grapher can comprehend it Thank you for your RUclips videos the best.
I started off my digital photography journey with the Nikon D1X and the D100 then a few years later added a Fuji S3. I still have them, the D1X needs a battery (I hope that's all that's wrong with it), the Fuji S3 still works but the screen on the back doesn't work any more. The D100 seems to be fine. All fine cameras in my opinion. I had prints made up to 30x40 inches back then for clients.
Nikon put the cable release threaded hole in the shutter button, because their customers in 2002 came from film camera users. The 6 dollar pop up flash diffuser is amazing 👏
My recently acquired D100 is still in the hands of FedEx but I've already placed the diffuser (that had never heard of) and a good standard shutter cable (that I didn't really realize any DSLR ever had!) In shopping carts... just waiting to get the camera to make sure that mine had not been modified in any way so I can purchase both! This is going to be a step back in technology to brush up on the basics as I am just a lowly amateur!

Great video, Carmine. I just picked up the 28-85 lens cheap in mint condition. It was harder to get the lens hood which came from China. Iam impressed with the lens because it is compact and lightweight. I have a few mid-range zooms but this pairs nicely with my D3.
Carmine As I keep finding your videos I find myself REALLY liking, enjoying, and love your photography philosophy!! I had a D100 (my first DSLR). Unfortunately my camera strap broke and I replaced it with the D80 (mistake on my part). In June 2023 I became excited because my friend found a D100 with the Nikon 24-85 lens in a thrift store for $4!! Yes $4.00!! I was estastic!! But my joy turned to disappointment. The shutter was on it's last leg. Towards the short ownership period (a week) when taking a photo it sound like a rapid machine gun. Then it quit taking. I figure the shutter died!! The only positive note the lens works on my other DSLRs so it is definitely worth the $4 I paid for the outfit. Keep your videos coming!! Best of luck in your photography journey! Best Duane
i remember when that camera came out , friend of my got one back in the day was base out the nikon f80 cost 2000euro back then , i got the d70 bit after and buy bit later a D1 used in 2004 still works and i still have it ,
@@CarmineTavernaPhotography ye the d70 was the first affordable digital camera at 1000euro i think many buy that one to make the switch to digital still have my but no longer work , the display and mount broke ,
Hi, good evening! i got one of these from my ant, but i didnt came with the instructions/manual owners do you have it on PDF? could you send the link or something like that if you do? thanks! good video, btw
Yes I do dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/36845/6-163Spring-2005/NR/rdonlyres/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-163Spring-2005/01684B32-74AF-486B-87A5-7C3AE05B1B6C/0/D100Guide.pdf
Great video, I inherited my dads D100 and I use it alongside with my D500. It’s really a great camera and brilliant for an old DSLR. I’m thinking of buying another this time but to dismantle and turn into full spectrum to look for UFOs, sounds crazy I know but you need to be in this world to get along 😀 Just subbed your channel and look forward to seeing more of your videos so thank you 🤘
Very informative video, just decided soon I will be buying one. China's used camera market is ill. I am so SICK of seeing old junks selling in ridiculous prices. A d100 in the condition like yous with the battery grip and lens is about 900-1200 Chinese currently (little less than 200usd) which I believe you would able to buy a much more useable kit. By the way, I see the Shanghai gp3 film back there, feels good!
I have lived on three continents and I must say we are lucky in the US that the market for used technology and photography is very reasonably priced! I hope some new affordable website or clearing house comes your way in the future!
The D200 that you own, scored very high when compared to the D100, read this article from my favorite website. cameradecision.com/compare/Nikon-D100-vs-Nikon-D200
@@CarmineTavernaPhotography yeah it actually worked Carmine. Got a D 70 to add to my collection and sticky grip was the only problem. Just bought a D 200 for 40 can’t wait to get it.
I bought a D100 at a yard sale, and it's the first DSLR camera I've owned. The sensor is dirty! I tried cleaning it but had no luck. The RUclips videos for sensor cleaning all seem to be for CMOS sensors. When I flip up the mirror there is a grey material in the area where I expected the sensor to be! I assume the cleaning process for CCD sensors is different. Could you offer any guidance on this issue?
@@CarmineTavernaPhotography I could see that being a great niche product! Focus on people who want great, vibrant colors in daylight and there's a market. I have a small collection of D200's so I know I'll always have one available
You give me the inspiration to go out a take pictures Carmine.

D200 is one of the cameras I'll never let go. It's getting harder to find cards for it, but not impossible.

I love my D200 as it additionally had the ability to fully meter with my old manual focus Nikkor lenses!
Awesome..thanks for tuning in 😆

Another great video, I buy the Olympus e500 for $100 today,thanks for the tips.
Good choice!

I was gonna use Gaffers Tape. Is the light seal foam better? …does your 10 Pin connector on the Grip have a cap? I can’t find mine. Thanks!
Use the light seal foam, not gaffers tape.

Hello and great question. The answer is on page 186 + 187 of the camera manual ...
link is here cdn-10.nikon-cdn.com/pdf/manuals/dslr/D100_en.pdf
Speaking of CCD, the Fujifilm S5 Pro has a CCD sensor, and it has a Nikon body. Strange time for Fuji back then xD
If I owned s camera factory, I would bring back the ccd sensor in a line of film like digital cameras 😆

P double S…word on the street says the sensor on this came produces a near 100% infrared photo when you mate it to an R-72 filter. Have you tried it?
