Wonderful, underrated SLR from Nikon that was the first to feature Automatic Multi-Pattern (matrix) metering. This Nikon FA comes in very clean condition with virtually no signs of previous use, and handles and functions beautifully. A new mirror dampener and film door light seal have been installed. Having seen probably only a few rolls of film in its lifetime, this lovely piece of engineering is patiently waiting for its new owner.
