rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hikingphoto - I love this camera. As a photographer who travels and backpacks frequently, it is perfect for my uses. Lightweight, TTL flash, bulletproof, who could ask for more? Works without the batteries if you need it to. TTL flash is great (the SB-30 is a perfec...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author roylafaver - There are many reviews of this camera on the web, so instead of rattling off the specs I will just give you the impressions of an ex-FM2n, ex-N90s user.

Back in 1987 I purchased my first Nikon - an FE2 to replace an increasingly frustrating Olympus OM10. By a sheer stroke of luck, I had moved from one of the worst (though most popular) cameras ever...

511635 Nikon FM3A: A matter of physical touch

Mon, 27 Aug 2001 00:21:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wdasilva - Nikon Corporation announces the FM3A as the successor to the FM2N. Yet I believe that FM3A will also, if not mainly, impact over the F3HP addicts. We will have the confluence of three trends here: FM2A, F3HP and FM3A – rather than a matter of linear...
