Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $70.00 from www.anya-of-odessa.c

Summary:

A nice cheap 35mm single lens reflex camera compatible with Nikon AI and AI-S lenses. It comes with an Arsat 50mm f/2-16 lens, which performs well. Exposimeter needs a LR544 6V battery (or equivalent). It could be a great second body for Nikon users.

Strengths:

Rock solid "old fashion" camera that worths its price. Perfect for those who doesn't need automatisms like autofocus, autoexposure or even a motorized film feed.

Weaknesses:

Maybe a little "too classic" camera for a beginner. The exposimeter tends to overexpose a half stop. That issue could be easily corrected for shooting slides or even ignored if shooting negative film, but it could be a real headache.

Similar Products Used:

Canon EOS 3000.

Customer Service:

I bought directly from Ukrania, paying by PayPal with no problems at all. The warranty is one year.
