Nikon FM Black 35mm Film Camera w/ 50mm f2 AI Lens -New Seals- [EXC-]

Description: Nikon FM Black 35mm Film Camera w/ 50mm f2 AI Lens -New Seals- [EXC-] This is one of my all time favorite cameras. My first serious camera was an FM (not this one) and I took some of my favorite photos with it. It also survived several uncontrolled trips down ice covered stairs during Ithaca winters (Cornell University: clear the snow before it freezes!) For those who do not know these cameras they are the zenith of classic manual focus design. They are surprisingly small, feel great in your hand, and have a huge viewfinder, larger than the later HP designs (it is true!) and drastically larger than current digital cameras. These cameras are perfect for people who know how to use a camera and prefer to set the controls directly rather than relying on automatic settings and menus and they are also the best way to learn photography. It is in good condition with moderate wear (see photos). There is a small dent on the bottom plate and a cool amount of brassing on the edges (see photos) but it is only cosmetic. The shutter and meter are accurate. The battery compartment is clean. Our technician has replaced the light seals, a $75 value. The lens is clean and scratch-free with no haze, fungus, nor other issues. The focus is smooth and the aperture is dry and snappy. The lens cap and batteries are included.
