I've picked up a job lot of gear that includes a Nikon bulk film magazine, which I think is the MZ-1 250-frame magazine.

Since I have no need for it I'll be listing it on eBay, but I'm having a bit of trouble confirming which cameras it fits - I have a very vague memory that it's the right one for the Nikon F, F2, and F3, but I've only been able to confirm this for F2.

 

Can anyone confirm this for the F and F3? Designation of the backs it fits would be useful too - I've got this as fitting the MF-1 on the F2, but no info on the F or F3.

If I remember correctly, the F250 for the F, the MF-1 for the F2, the MF-4 for the F3 and the MF-24 for the F4 all use the same MZ-1 cassette.

Thanks - I've found a couple of sites that confirm this (or rather I found one, someone on Nikon.gear found the other)

It's about 30 years since I last saw one of these backs, which is why I was a bit unsure.
