Pros: all

Cons: almost nothing

Opinion: I am the lucky owner of a Nikon FM2n in my possession since 1985 I think.... it's been a long time but she has remained faithful to my side giving me beautiful images. What about this camera ? It was not born as a professional camera, but it was in the wake of many professionals, for the simple reason that it is unstoppable. It is equipped with a robust mechanics, has no frills, but has everything you need. Excellent for those approaching photography...... it is an excellent training ship. Equally great as a forklift camera. Shoot in any weather (apart from pouring rain). I'm still excited about it, so much so that I gave one to my wife. Forgot...... She has a mechanical shutter that for the times when she was born was a real prodigy.... and maybe it still is. A pity not to own one.

Pros: All

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: This machine is the meeting point between solidity and quality, practically indestructible body, easy to use, from a mechanical point of view a jewel, it is all entirely mechanical, it is light and compact, I am lucky enough to still be able to use it given the perfect care and conservation that has been dedicated to it

Pros: Small light mechanical... bought new in 1988....with md12 engine... nikkor 24 f2/8... nikkor 35 f1/4... nikkor 50 f 1/4... nikkor 105 f2/5... nikkor 180 f 2:8... will stay x always in my house ... I will never sell it

Cons: 1/4000 practically useless... never used even the 2/000... but I only used kodachrome 25 or ekta 100 or velvia 50

Opinion: Never sell ... before I had minolta srt 101... Canon f1... hasselblad 500... sold the latter x reasons for money... with the proceeds I took a nikon kit ... small light machine but excellent on all occasions ... with the engine it became perfect... never lost a photo... with 24/50/180 I photographed everything without problems

Pros: Simply perfect

Cons: nothing

Opinion: I am not talking about FM2 but FM, the first but practically identical to FM2 apart from the shutter speed. I gave it in 1979 to my wife accompanied by the Nikkor 50mm f1.8, the 28mm f2.8 and the 135mm f2.8. A few years later I also gave her the cheap zoom E70-150mm f3.5. Extraordinary indestructible machine working even without battery. We still have it and now it is in the hands of our daughter, graphics and art designer in a major design company that sometimes still uses it for advertising images. What about.... a pillar of photography with a capital F when everything was in the photographer's hands and there were no Photoshop and Lightroom parachutes

Pros: all

Cons: nothing

Opinion: I've used it on several occasions and fallen in love with it. I took weddings as a support photographer, we talk about the 90s when weddings were taken in Hasselblad 6x6 for color and black and white in 35mm. Even at my wedding my photographer friends took the BN in FM2n and some pictures of my wife I took it myself. I've never had one of my own and every time I open eBay I try to find one to buy but then I don't because I don't have Nikon optics. as Basil says, they are machines that never stop. my father bought a Minolta SRT101 back in 1075 and is still in my bag fully functional, all iron and brass, snaps at -30 and +50 (if you can hold it). the FM2 has a big extra gear, shoots up to 1/4000" which was a lot of stuff at the time. Minolta, Canon, Leica, Olympus and Contax reached a maximum of 1/1000"!!! listen to Basil, NEVER SELL IT!
