The F's mirror assembly is far superior to the current Nikon Line, very well 
built and far quieter than the current Nikon line, Period.

As for Viewfinder brightness, I'm with Doug, SL #1, then the R8.  the rest 
just don't cut it.

An SL viewfinder would be better.  The F viewfinder's pretty good though.
