Nikon Nikkormat FTN 35mm SLR Film Camera with 50mm f1.4 Lens
Description:
The Nikon Nikkormat FTN is a strong, all-metal SLR built to stay with you for many years. Everything is manual, so you choose the shutter speed, aperture and focus yourself. This hands-on approach is a wonderful way to understand how light and settings shape your photos. A special detail is the shutter speed ring placed around the lens, letting you adjust both settings without looking away from the viewfinder. Often called the little brother of the legendary Nikon F, it shares the same reliable feel and solid build. The bright 50mm f1.4 Nikkor lens shines in low light and gives beautiful soft backgrounds for portraits. With the Nikon F mount, a large choice of classic lenses is ready for you to explore.
Specs:
- Type: Fully mechanical

- Lens: Nikon F mount, 50mm f1.4 Nikkor

Battery: PX625 equivalent, such as MRB625 zinc-air, for the light meter (included)
Due to the age of this camera and the nature of old light meters we can’t guarantee that the light meter still works. This isn’t an issue as the camera will function perfectly without batteries. To meter a scene before taking a picture we recommend using an external light-meter or for you to take our online course that will teach you how to use a film camera without the use of any external tools.
