Since with the inception of Nippon Kogaku until the current Nikon Corporation - they were probably hundreds of camera models as well as million of Nikkor optics being sold thus far. It is very hard to satisfy everyone intention when each surfer coming to this Pictorial History Website (first created since 1997). Over the last few years, I have constructed quite a number of sites featuring a selective Nikon camera models (Nikon F(based on Mike Liu's previous effort, the Nikon F2 series, F3 Series, Nikon F4, NIkon F5, the digital SLR series as well as the midrange models such as Nikon FM series, FA, FE series, Nikkormat/Nikomat and the compact EM/FG/FG20 etc..). Each of these featured model has their respective Message Board to support specific owner of each camera types. However, there are a number of very good Nikon SLRs (as well as the film and/or Digital compacts wer quite exciting too. But due to various reasons, I cannot featured them one by one. This Message Board was created just for that purpose - to provide a gateway for those that were not being featured. You may use it for whatever you think suitable - questions & answers (Q&A) or just make good use of it to share experience among one another. The use of this section of the photography SITE is not confined soly for this purpose, you may also make use of it for other photographic matters. Some of the remarks presented within the pictorial history site was entirely personal and I do not wish to influence any decision prior to any potential purchases or disposal of your equipment. You may make use of this convenience here to present your own views as well. Enjoy.

Generally when someone ask how to open the film back, this means he/she might not even know where the film rewind knob is. So, I would also suggest download the instructioin adn follow the graphic illustration in how-to. An alternate way is to look out for some specific terms from a nomenclauture such as this to find out the whereabout of these controls:

The Nikon FG has the film rewind knob / and film rewind crank here:

This board has been very well maintained. That is good.

Hi Stephen: I'd try a battery first, it won't run without one and 10 years is a long time for a battery.

I have a Nikon FG. I haven't used it in 10 years. I took it out and the mirror seems to be in the up position -- I cant' see through the lens. Is this a battery problem or something else? Stephen

Original price with F601: I am not sure if this helps. Crag Camera does sells price listings of oldies (It was 1990 camera). For the Nikon FG w/70-210 E (I assume) try get an idea of the FG first from Ebay but since you are package with the lens, it may fetch a higher premium

There a couple of 70-210, you better check which version as prices vary in the used equipment market:

I bought my old Nikon F601 back in 1991. It has served me faithfully all these years but I have just broken the catch on the back and I need to know the original price for the insurance company, I can't remember. Any ideas?
