Product Description:
A new Classic? The past and the future combined? A beautiful photographic tool? Whatever description you choose for Nikon's newest SLR camera, one thing will be sure. As a camera, you will rely on its functions, and have consistent faith in its dependability. Nikon's FM3A, is a manual-focus, 35mm SLR camera featuring a special hybrid shutter control system enabling full mechanical exposure control range plus electronic shutter speed control. The FM3A is ideal for photographers seeking the quality and innovation of a 35mm camera with the freedom of personal control. For mechanical operation the shutter's control does not require battery power, allowing you to shoot in all types of conditions, including extremely cold weather, without having to worry about battery failure. When using the batteries, you can take advantage of the camera's built-in exposure meter, and Aperture Priority Auto Exposure Mode.Nikon also introduces a new lens with a really retro-look - but with some Ultra-Modern Features! The AI-S Nikkor 45mm f/2.9P ultra compact lens has a special silver Retro finish which matches the silver FM3A & other select SLR cameras. This lens has a high-performance Nikon Super Integrated Coating that reduces flare while increasing contrast. And with the 45mm's built-in CPU for information exchange (P-type Nikkor), transfer of information from lens to light meter and flash systems, create a superior image and makes this lens fully compatible with almost all Nikon SLR's.
