Product Description
The FM2/n has a long-standing reputation for reliability and durability[1]. It has an extremely strong body of copper silumin aluminum alloy[2]. The FM2's film transport consists of high-strength hardened metal gears and moving parts, mounted on clusters of ball bearings. The vertical metal shutter, originally titanium and switching to aluminum during the FM2n life cycle, utilizes precision tapered high-strength blades and oil-less self-lubricating bearings. The mirror linkage uses the same mechanism found on Nikon's professional F2, with some modern improvements designed to further reduce effects of vibration and mirror bounce. The camera features Nikon's famous close tolerance assembly and minimal space lubrication, meaning that it will reliably operate in temperature extremes of 40 °C to +50 °C.
The FM2 is a mechanically-controlled manual focus SLR with manual exposure control. It is operable without batteries and only needs the two S76 or A76 batteries, or one 1/3N battery to power the light meter, which consisted of an internal 60/40 percent centerweighted system linked to a center-the-LED exposure control system. The exposure control system used vertically arranged +/o/ light emitting diodes (LEDs) on the right side of the viewfinder to indicate the readings of the meter versus actual camera settings.

 Excellent body. May 21, 2010

It is a shame Amazon allows negative review on a particular camera to be put on when the buyer got the wrong camera and not that the camera, the Nikon FM2, was the problem.
I own this body and can attest to the fact that it is perfect for someone who wishes to have total control over the pictures they are taking.

An overall comment about this seller is very bad. In Amazon.com seller display six slides which is looking good and indicate that it is Nikon FM2 with good condition. Only for Nikon FM2, I ordered this. However, I have received only Nikon. The seller don't know the difference between Nikon and Nikon FM2.As a result, I am become cheated by this seller through Amazon.com. Not only that the seller don't know the meaning of good condition. The camera I received it is includes lots of fungus in inside lenses. Battery is not working also dents and scratch in back side of the body. Finally, I have done a great mistake.
