Pros: Aesthetics, shutter, viewfinder, light meter, solid and reliable, strong value hold, uniqueness being the latest FM produced

Cons: it's perfect like that

Opinion: I've had it for three years and it was a purchase that I will never regret, because I like to use it and own it, look at it and admire it, an aesthetic and mechanical perfection that only FM have. It was the last FM produced, the swan song at Nikon, little considered because it cost a lot and we were going digital, while those who used the film preferred those with af. Today it is strongly revalued but the price is worth it all for its uniqueness. Its merit is a mechanical / electrical shutter that is a masterpiece of engineering, it works with the small battery of eternal durability in electronic mode up to 1/4000 including the aperture priority with an EV compensation ring, without battery in mechanical mode up to 1/1000. the light meter is excellent and does not miss a beat as only Nikon can make them, the viewfinder and a pleasure for the eyes and focuses easily, I recommend taking it with its P 45mm, another jewel in the Nikon house, little understood but which has a beautiful rendering. There is little else to add, the film manuals do not have the functions of digital, in the end you just have to compose and choose the exposure triplets, with the FM3a it is a pleasure to do so, and reassures that it will do so without ever disappointing you

Pros: indestructible, functional

Cons: nobody

Opinion: rn I have always had this car, bought as soon as I left. rn I mistreated, slammed, crushed ... it is still new. I really like the exposure system, it's very clear where are our times and those of the exposure meter. The only flaw perhaps that it is not illuminated, so in situations of low light it takes a little 'patience. The machine has thousands of shots and has never jammed, never given a problem. I'll never get rid of it. rnThe black version, then, is also rather stealth or at least in time did not give the idea of ??expensive machine, particularly suitable for reportage also hard, given the ability to always shoot without any battery (obviously losing the exposure meter). I do not even know what to say. rnCombina perfectly mechanical, quality, price. If it were a clock it would be mechanically perfect, absolutely minimal and immortal .. What I would buy
