Customer Reviews

I really hope that this short review is of some help to those who are out there searching for a nice and affordable camera to buy. There are so many to choose from and so many different ways, especially with shopping via the Internet, to purchase cameras that it helps to have someone help out. You'll find that the Nikon FM-10 is lightweight, but as durable as some cameras that are much more expensive.
I am an avid photographer and I love two brands of cameras, Canon and Nikon. The Nikon FM10 is a durable and dependable 35mm film camera. The kit comes complete with everything you will need to begin your new photographic adventure. My only concern for people that are not VERY familiar with cameras, is that you might now realize that this model is not automatic like the newer versions. If you have the time to spend focusing your subject-then this is a camera that will perform consistently for you. If you are brand new to photography and would like for your camera to do all of the focusing and other adjustments, you're likely better off at least reviewing the newer versions of this SAME camera.
I have used this camera over and over and over again. In all honesty, it's as good a camera as any at this level. The photos are always crisp and predictable and the body of the camera has held up well for over 7 years. I've found myself taking photographs and then the rain would come and soak myself and the camera. Even without proper water protection, the camera has not shown any problems or any sign of rusting.
You'll find it easy to load your film and quite easy to get used to taking great pictures. The lens that is included with the Camera Kit is a very good one and will serve most of your needs. There is a great array of additional lenses and other products that you can buy to add to you Nikon FM10.
The camera was launched to the public, as the Nikon FM-10 in 1995. A magazine that I like to read, Popular Photography, felt that Nikon could have done a bit better with this camera outfit-but that was ONLY their opinion. But In 1996, an automatic version of the lightweight FM10, the Nikon FE-10 was also being introduced as a continuation model to the discontinued Nikon FE-2. The FE-2 was retired in 1986. For many Nikon fans, mixed feelings were abundant about the original launch of the NIKON FM-10. But few could argue that the general mechanics of the camera are good to outstanding.
Take your time in researching the right camera for you. I think that this would be a great camera for students who are taking an introductory photography class. With Automatic-Everything Cameras, it's too easy to swith to "AUTO" when you're learning how to take photographs in a class. The Nikon FM10 would allow the new student to "focus" on the true and important elements of photography that are extremely helpful to an aspiring photographer.
I hope this was helpful at least in part. It was a pleasure to share information with you and I'd be happy to entertain questions about anything that I've missed in this review.
Happy Picture Taking!

The FM series of cameras from Nikon has a long and distinguished history. The FM10 is a totally manual camera with through the lens center weighted metering. The beauty of the manual system is that you have a complete range of shutter speeds if the batteries fail. Additionally, you get to set the camera settings how you want to without trying to out think and out smart the auto programming that most cameras have now. In other words, you get to take the picture; not the camera. The FM10 is a sturdy camera that has one of the widest ranges of lenses available to it. There is not a lens that you can think of that can not be found for this camera. Beginners or professionals: anyone that wants to be a photographer and not just a button pusher should get this camera.
