Nikon FM3A

Out of stock
The Nikon FM3A is a highly regarded hybrid 35mm SLR that features a unique shutter capable of operating both electronically (for aperture-priority auto) and mechanically (for all speeds from 1/4000s to 1s without batteries). It represents the final evolution of the FM/FE series, combining the best features of the FM2 and FE2. It is exceptionally well-suited for travel and outdoor photography where battery reliability might be a concern.

Is it worth selling my Nikon FM3A?
