I have an FM10. The shutter has started exposing only half the frame. Any one know a simple do-yourself fix. Or a good repair service in the San Francisco Bay Area? Thanks.

the FM2 is just a basic camera. I used it for 15 years and found nothing great about it. I was let to believe it was great. after doing some thinking. I realise that the FE2 and the FG is much better than the FM2. the worst thing about FM2 is the LEDs display metering. anyway I get rid of my old cameras. that is FM2, FE2 and bought the modern camera F100. well, I still keep my Nikon FG which I consider the best among the 80's camera

Hi all, I have an FM2n and want to buy a flash. I'm not looking for anything too expensive ($100-150). I'd like to eventually buy and AF camera to use it with later. I was looking at a couple of Sunpaks and the Quantaray Q383. Any suggestions? Should I go for a Nikon flash?

To Emane: A F3, is it worth or not? Difficult question. My advice: contact friends who own a F3, and have a try. Advantages of the F3: 100% viewfinder view (bright!), highly accurate meter (80/20, very useful), longest exposure time > 8s when in "automatic", mirror lock up, exchangeable viewfinder prisms, lots of focusing screen types, also non-AI lenses can be mounted;
disadvantages: very heavy, annoying non-ISO flash hotshoe, shortest exposure time for flash only 1/80s, highest film speed for TTL flash 400 ISO, only manual metering with MLU.

Hi, I'm looking for someone who possess both a FM2 and A F3. I may buy a F3, I've been using several FM2 for years... I need some advice. Is it worth it ? Emane

Hello. I bought my FM in April 1982, for £147.95 from Youngs of Leicester, and I am still very pleased with it. It has survived quite harsh weather in the UK and overseas, just a couple of breakdowns, but it has always been worth fixing, largely due to cost of replacement with newer models. But it was worth every penny, and I shall never part with it. Meter is very good, but take care into light in strong sunlight, but when you get used to it you should have little trouble. Very robust body, shutter is pretty quiet for an SLR, 1/1000th sec more than adequate for most of my pics, I have only used faster speeds on FM2 very rarely.

Nikkor 50mm f1.8 that came with it is superb, and with PK Set is super for close ups. I now have also a Micro Nikkor 55mm f3.5 pre AI it is a cracking lens, cost £125 a bargain Also a 43-86 Nikkor sold as seen, for £39 last year, still really got to test it thoroughly, but internal blemish (minor) seems not to show up on my pics. Have tried one or two other borrowed lens, and my Tamrons and Vivitar Series One Zoom are superb. Overall, if you can get a well looked after example, and look after it you should have a tool for life. Cheers Paul.

PS MD11/MD12 very loud I do'nt use them myself, but I'm told they do the job.
