Get it serviced and a Nikkormat should last a life time.

Easy sub. I picked up a Canon iif with the canon 50 1.8 last week, aside from some outside oxidation, everything is perfect. No holes or disintegrated shutter. Went to an antique mall 10 mins away from where I picked the camera up and found a nicca type iiis with a Nikkor 50 1.4. Picked that up for the lens ($50 total) and have been shooting with it since. Two rolls down!

...strong statement.. great photos!

Id love to hear what you think of it nowadays after using it for a bit!

Love your shirt 🇵🇸

Midway through the video I felt I was watching an ASMR video, felt relaxed! ☺️

When you`re among the best they can charge more...!

found one of these my grandma had in storage. i thought my pentax k1000 was a solid build. this camera could survive anything

One year with my 240, great camera. Now saving for a Summilux 50mm. No compromise, Leica camera needs a Leica lens.

Ugly sterile camera.👎

Good defense of a fine camera 👍☕📷

I have an FT3 and a Nikkormat EL that I bought new in the 1970s. Meter out on the FT3, but both still work great. Just wanted to mention that the stop-down button on the FT3 is more for checking DOF than metering, so it’s still functional. Having used all of the older Nikons from that time, the indexing requirement to mount lenses was irritating at first, but you got used to it with use. Bargain lenses for it are found on lots of sites and may be better options if the Soligor is less than stellar. Good review though. I never liked the slider to change ISO though.

i used mine for years mirror sticks now but i got shutter to work and the light meter died long ago so i needed a film camera and got F4 for cheaper than i can belive full working so my lenses are back in full frame

LEICA S3 is my workhorse, and I will say, the LEICA-T is STILL, used all the time coupled with a silver 35mm summicron- replacing the urge to use the iPhone. also, the algorithm on insta favors the file size** without compression. crazy times we're in. PS you can upgrade the LEICA-T internal memory, disassembly is easy, all to swap a MICRO-SD card :)

@Oh Aces ... I have come across a brand new in box (new old stock, never shot) for £650, and wondered if you thought it was still worth considering (Mattias Burling still thinks it should be loved) as a possible purchase in 2024 now that there are more optiona on the glass front ??

get the ivsb2 or s2 for a better viewfinder, i love mine even with glasses, its just built so well

I love the leica t , I upgraded the firmware , I upgraded the internal memory and wrote an article on leica rumors about it , the t is magical , the back screen is amazing , if you use manual lenses on it , I shhoot street on it everyday with a 90 mm 1.25 lens you swipe right and the whole screen goes into 16x9 mode , the pop up flash is amazing and has a great throw and nice fill , battery life is 250-300 shots the sensor is so rich with color and sharp and the leica stack is thinner than the fujifilms giving you more 3d pop ! , you can lock out the screen while shooting and the sigma lenses are amazing , getting a autofocus for this price is insane ! the t didn't have wifi though , you needed a phone hotspot of connect it to a router to communicate to it , the batteries are still expensive for it and since people are talking about the price went up again , i love the fujifilm x trans 1 sensor the colors are my fav but Id say leica wins this one for being so crazy and good to use in hand i love it

What do you use the adapt your R glass?

Older lenses like that are not so difficult to disassemble and clean. Unless the fungus has etched the coating, the repair is complete. I inherited my dad's FTn which he bought at the PX in Okinawa along with a 50mm f/1.4 lens (I also have) that cost his entire monthly salary. My mom, back stateside living on a base with a toddler was livid. Some 60 years later, I think all is forgiven now. I used that camera growing up. Back around 2017, I arranged dual layovers in Tokyo so I could drop off and pick up the camera and lens from a repair shop run by retired Nikon engineers and technicians. Almost everyone there was in their 70's or 80's, working part time continuing their passion. When I went to pick up the camera, they gave me a little baggy of a slightly corroded plate and some contacts for the meter they replaced. They were curious why it might be so corroded and I explained the camera was on a sailboat for 2 years in Central America in 1979-80. The Nikkormat FTn isn't a tank, it's a battleship.

Totally stupid video.... it s just a Camera... not a piece of art.... The camera is not important... Your camera is important....

I love my R4. It has been perfectly reliable and a winner with the excellent R lenses. It does distress me to see people shipping cameras with no body cap.

don't buy things you can't afford to use the heck out of, it's the photos which matter

Beautiful. I had the Q2 Monochrom, sold it earlier this year. I don’t exactly miss it, but I definitely miss the output. I couldn’t justify having an M, SL, and Q, but perhaps I was wrong? I love the calmness of your videos. Leica ASMR almost. 📷🤫

I had the original Q and absolutely love it, it dramatically changed my way of photographing. Keep it 🙏🏼

buy an Audi, in gunmetal grey.. it does mean the color, not the material.. you bought a black camera in titanium grey.

Leica's are always overpriced. always. Buy a FUJI !!!!!!

Don't sell it. If you sold one before, and bought it again, you're gonna buy it again.

Ive got the Nikkormat EL, the F(x2), the F2, the FM, FE2, and a handful of other nikon bodies. Some of them were cosmetically pretty thrashed when i got them, but none have ever needed maintenance. While they dont feel quite as good in the hand as some of the barnack leicas ive handled, theyre undoubtedly better engineered than anything that ever came out of europe. Those copal shutters in the nikkormats and fm just dont fail. Good cameras.

I once dropped my Nikkormat FTN on the floor. The floor took damage

счас на мобильник можно снять лучше чем на лейку )))

It's nice to know I'm not the only person out there who just keeps admiring the rewind cranks of old Nikons😁.

Thank you so much for sharing.

"It's big and heavy. You could probably beat someone to death with this" Out of the box review. Instant like & subscribe.

Got a mint one with box a few days ago for CAN$2000. 🎉🎉🎉

It's a get-it-done camera. The M9 is Kodachrome, the M240 is Agfachrome which was the better film. And battery life, very good. All in all a good camera.

Have a FT2 bought in 1978, think I need to go play with the rewind lever, lol.

20$? I paid 80$ 😭

Beautiful looks

Nice video! I've got a P and a IIIA (also a 1936 Contax III, but I haven't shot them side by side). The P is undoubtedly a nice camera, but there is a sense of bulk that it has that the IIIA does not. Personally I prefer the IIIA, largely because of the mechanical feel, which is quite sublime in my opinion. The P feels a bit more like an SLR, and while not quite as dense as the IIIA, the feel in the hand of the IIIA is superior. Two things: 1. The 50/1.8 isn't strictly a Zeiss formula, it's a slightly modified double gauss/Planar, which is basically the Tessar of high speed lenses, that is to say, almost everything faster than 2.8 is a double gauss of some sort, just like nearly every 50, 2.8 or slower is usually a Tessar. The Canon 50/1.5 however is a Sonnar copy, which was specifically Zeiss. 2. If you want a better viewfinder from a Canon Barnack copy, the IVSb2, IIS2, IID2, and IIF2 all have an improved VF and use the modern geometric shutter scale (the II s using 1/500 as the top speed) going 1/ 8, 15, 30, 60, 125, 250, etc vs 1/ 8, 25, 40, 60, 100, 200. I've never held an M3, and don't need to, this and the Contax scratch the itch, with far more character and better looks in my opinion. If interested in Zeiss glass, you can also adapt Contax/Kiev RF glass using a coupled adapter to LTM. It opens up a world of cheap glass!

Nice Loading sequence! Light looking slappy! Subbed my fellow film tuber! Hey BTW! Please don't cancel me if you run across the short I posted today. It is titled "RACIST Film Photographer Exposed" Just out here hustling views with some clickbait.

vintage nikons, you cant go wrong!

I’m interested in the canon 50mm 1.8 vintage lens. Would you recommend this? Also can I screw it on the Leica m without an adapter?😊 new follower

Have only one lens fitted on my Leica MD262. The Zeiss 50mm f/2 T Planar ZM and it`s staying there...!

I’ve bought numerous cameras from Japan without issue and eBay has always, or at least in the last 5 years or so, had an eBay guarantee regardless of return policies from the seller. Click the return button, return label is generated and off it goes. I’m on the hunt for an M5 and your video makes me wonder if the Japanese leicas just aren’t very well kept.

Cool Video, where do you have that nice leather strap from?

Palestine shirt 👏👏👏

Nikkormats are a well kept secret!
