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.

Pull the film rewind lever up (the black part within the ASA/ISO setting ring), the back will pop open :)

NIKON D1X Is it possible to have a time and date stamp on the photos as you take them? I cannot find this feature in my manual.

I have a Nikon FG that I got in 1983 and I love it. When I used it in cold weather evidently the battery got too low and the shutter closed but will not reopen. I put a new battery in, but I still can't get it to close. This happened once before when I first got it and a camera shop fixed it but didn't show me what they did. Can someone help? Thanks

Hi Gen: The meter would have to be readusted if you changed to a screen of significantly different brightness, but you don't need to do that just to replace a scratched screen or to change to a different pattern like an all-matte or grid screen. Screens in the EM-FG series are not difficult to change. The trick is finding a new screen to put in.... chances are it will have to come out of another camera.

Have been Skipping this site for a while, nice board (leo, your sites are getting better and batter by the day..). Ok, the FG has no interchangeable screen options designed for this camera. HOwever, I heard some specialized skilled technicians do offer this kind of services/request, but the problem is, if the screen has been changed, you need to calibrate the meter reading, next, once you have changed, you need to go back to them for reverting. I would think the standard K screen is a pretty all round screen and wondering is there a neccessity for such a move. Further, most technicians offer this kind of services would require you to sign a paper for any damages that may cause during screen interchange, so, if it happens- you cannot claim any damages from such modification.

Overall, it needs a lot of justification for such a decision nor it will improve viewfinder brightness considerably even if you intend to change it. My personal advice is- stick to factory spec.

Dear Sirs, I own a Nikon FG in perfect shape excluding its fixed focusing screen that is scratched. May I replace it? Where do I find instructions to do it if possible. Thanks for any kind help, Igor
