Re: Vintage film cameras
There are plenty of Nikons around but they are very expensive. I was a bit lucky with this one and put in a low offer thinking that if I couldn't fix it, I could probably recoup the money selling the body and lens separately. In the end, it was an easy fix.
I know very little about Nikons and have no idea about the lenses. This one hasn't got the rabbit ear - whatever that means. The shutter mechanism is incredibly smooth compared to the other manual cameras I have but I don't like the screen - just a circle as below; I was expecting a split screen and as far as I can make out, focussing screens aren't replaceable on FMs |

Re: Vintage film cameras
And the Canon looks very nice too. Good price.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Too far out of my way otherwise I'd jump on it. G1 should be here tomorrow. Might buy a L39 adapter for the Zorki lenses.
