This is one of my all time favorite cameras. My first serious camera was an FM (not this one) and I took some of my favorite photos with it. It also survived several uncontrolled trips down ice covered stairs during Ithaca winters (Cornell University: clear the snow before it freezes!)

For those who do not know these cameras they are the zenith of classic manual focus design. They are surprisingly small, feel great in your hand, and have a huge viewfinder, larger than the later HP designs (it is true!) and drastically larger than current digital cameras.

These cameras are perfect for people who know how to use a camera and prefer to set the controls directly rather than relying on automatic settings and menus and they are also the best way to learn photography.

It is in excellent condition with light wear and works perfectly. The shutter and meter are accurate and the mechanical functions are smooth. The battery compartment is clean. Our technician has replaced the light seals, a $75 value. The lens is clean and scratch-free with no haze, fungus, nor other issues. The focus is smooth and the aperture is dry and snappy.

The batteries and lens cap are included.
