The Ultimate in Reliability
The F5 is strong: its major components
crafted from durable metals. The chassis is
made of tough aluminum alloy, rigid and
strong to maintain precise alignment, as
are the top shoulders, the bottom and the
front-grip covers.
The viewfinder’s top cover is titanium for
extra resistance to impact. Covering
selected areas of this armor-like structure
are rubber surfaces, textured for secure
holding and for buffering against the
environment and impact.
The grip itself has a textured rubber
surface. Dials and buttons are designed to
resist intrusion by moisture and dust.
The F5’s design has been rigorously tested
to assure reliable performance under
demanding professional conditions. It is
tested to resist moisture and dust. It is
vibration-tested and put through extremes
of temperature.
If you’ve ever experienced shutter failure—
shutters that sound like they’re working
but are not, or that have become inaccurate
due to fatigue and environmental stresses,
you’ll appreciate the F5’s Shutter Monitor.
Temperatures and other conditions affect
shutters, altering their performance. The
Shutter Monitor checks the shutter
everytime its released. If speeds begin to
shift from the calibrated speed, the camera
automatically compensates to maintain
an accurate exposure. If in an extreme
instance the shutter fails to operate, the F5
will alert you.
Whisper Quiet Operation
A mirror balancer reduces noise and
vibration. The F5 also has a faster-moving
mirror, so it can keep up with other
high-speed operations, like the motor’s
8 frames per second framing rate and
autofocus speed that keeps pace with
the motor.
Thanks to a floating-type design, the
coreless motors and gears are quieter too.
With their shock-absorber like
construction, they minimize internally
induced vibration. In the continuous
Silent film advance mode, you get quiet
film advance—not just quiet, but also
with a quality of sound that isn’t metallic
or shrill.
