The Nikon F601, otherwise known as the Nikon N6006, was a 35mm single-lens reflex film camera that was produced by Nikon starting in 1991^[1]. The F601 featured an improved, second generation autofocus system, motor drive for automatic film-advance as well as a new "Matrix" metering program.

The camera included an integrated motor drive and was also available in a version with a date back, which could be set to print the date and time on the photo film as pictures were taken. As a kit, the F601 shipped with a 35-to-70 mm autofocus Nikkor zoom lens. It was compatible with a wide range of Nikon F-mount lenses, including both autofocus and manual focus types.

One of the finest cameras of its time and probably still in first class working condition after 16 years! With Fuji 200asa film on board, this camera will still outperform almost any digital camera! [Fivish (C) 2008]
