Golden Oldie.

My recently acquired Nikon F2 Photomic film camera which dates from 1976. I bought this in excellent condition for approximately 1/10th of the original (1970s) price and the 50mm f2 lens was included in the price. There are a few areas of "brassing" where the black colour has worn away but otherwise it seems to be working properly, even the meter, which is usually faulty on these old cameras. I am currently replacing the light-seals and mirror cushion which are in poor condition and then I will be ready to try it out.

Photographed with a Nikon D500 camera and AF Micro Nikkor 60mm f2.8 macro lens.
