Rediscover the charm of mechanical cameras. Nikon Nikomat FTN + NIKKOR-S Auto 50mm F1.4

Impressions after using it

The solid metal body gives you a sense of security when you hold it in your hand. In addition to the robust construction you expect from Nikon, the sharp image quality you expect from NIKKOR lenses is also intact.
It's a fully mechanical camera, so you can shoot manually. It's the perfect camera for those who want to experience the feeling of controlling the settings with their own hands.
It uses the same non-AI F mount as the Nikon F and F2, so one of its attractions is that it can be used with a wide range of NIKKOR lenses. It's a great camera with solid basic performance, despite being more affordable than the F/F2. It's also a great starting point for those looking to step up their game.
