I have a Nikon FG in excellent cometic condition. The problem is that the electronics are sporadic. Sometimes it works perfectly but sometimes it doesn't. From what I understand it probably has a faulty circuit board that are not available anymore.
The good news is that even when electronics are not working, it will still fire at 1/90 and B so you can still use the camera albeit with limits.
The lens is a CPC Phase 2 CCT 28-50mm, f 3.5-4.5, AI, macro zoom. The glass is clear, the focusing smooth, and the "zooming" is good from 50-35mm but then it becomes stiff between 35 & 28mm.
The first person to pledge $10 for postage gets the camera.

FWIW CPC (and Cosmicar) lenses were made by Pentax
and are generally very good...
