Condition:  

  • Exc
  • this camera shows signs of regular use but remains in solid functional condition.
  • there are multiple scuffs and bright marks on the chrome work
  • some minor dings (likely from handling or light bumps)
  • all controls are in excellent working order
  • The camera’s built-in light meter deviates by ½ to 1 stop compared to our Minolta Meter V in the shop. A ½ to 1 stop variance is workable for most film photography, especially print film (which has good exposure latitude). But for critical work (slide film, precise exposures) we will recommend an external meter or bracketing.

what does it come with:

  • A great deal of thought has gone into solving the challenge of reading the meter needle in less-than-ideal lighting. The previous owner of this now-unique Nikon F2—clearly a talented and dedicated individual—must have invested considerable time and effort to create the exceptional camera we see today.
  • Their ingenious solution? A custom-built, manually controlled illuminator that lights up the meter window on demand. This subtle yet brilliant modification ensures effortless meter readings in any lighting condition—making it an absolute pleasure to use, day or night.
