I'm sure this has been asked countless time but I can't sem to find anything to confirm or otherwise. Will all ports that fit an F100 housing also fit my D70 housing? I'm struggling to find out...
Many thanks in advance...

Subal Port compatability question

Yes, with Subal they should. I was able to keep all my port attachments when I moved up from my F90x to my D300. But some of your gears may not. I had to get new A/M gears for my 60mm and 105mm micro when I upgraded.

From memory Subal changed their port design during the F801 (N8008) housing run - which was initially available in the screw on port as well as the bayonet port.
The bayonet port continued from the F801 through all the later Nikon and Canon film cameras and the Nikon and Canon digital SLRs up to the D300/D3, when a wider aperture bayonet port was introduced as an option. Although the older size is still available.
There were a few other port sizes along the way. The Subal for the Nikon Coolpix 5000 had different sized ports.

Thanks for that. Sadly by the time I'd decided to go for it the ebay bargain I had my eye own had been snaffled by somebody else. Fortune favours the bold!!
