That Nikkormat FTn.

All nice images above!

Apparently, the 50/2.0 is not too hard to find. Price is reasonable as well. I will put that one on my summer list of gear acquisition!:):)

Can I share a recent Nikkormat FTN image? As nice as the camera is, more credit goes to the lens. AI 35/2, here. Film was Delta 400 @ 100, souped in HC-110, semi-stand for 90 min.

The meter on mine works, but since I'm missing the battery cap, it is my Sunny 16 camera! I've been practicing it more, and I'm finding that with the film latitude plus latitude during scanning and post-processing, I can get away with quite a bit! ;)

One thing I like about this camera is how industrial its build feels. It's totally different than an Olympus OM, for example, which feels a lot more precise and delicate. This feels like it could really take a hit, in comparison.

This is shot with the FTn in 1972. A completely forgotten picture. I'm so happy I found the negative!
