Boz, unless I've gone completely nuts here, the F80 can use all
of the Nikon manual focus lenses that are designated as AI or
AI-S,  That's a heap of manual focus lenses.  Remember, Nikon
still produces manual focus cameras, even newer than the F80.
The new FM3A is a manual focus camera.  And, you can still turn
off autofocus when using autofocus lenses, if you want to.

Well, there's no faulting your thinking on that one. :)
