My Nikon FG-20, with a black body and Nikon Series E prime lens 50mm, 1:1.8. It has TTL centre-weighted metering, with the light metre visible through the viewfinder on the left. A hint of automatic operation (A setting aperture priority) this camera can be used completely manually and also mechanically (M90 setting) if the small batteries fail. This camera gets contemptuous treatment from most ‘professionals’ and camera buffs, but a small group of photographers love its lightweight, simply functional design (especially the black body model), as it uses any Nikon F mount lens (Ai or Ai-S). I have had mine for many years, since 1991 and it is still a fantastic camera. I sometimes wish for a Nikkor 24mm 1:2.8 wide angle lens, but the Series E 50mm 1:1.8 lens has superb optics, optical coatings to reduce flare and is compact with 52mm filter threads. I use Hoya UV(C) and a Polaroid Polarizer filters, the Hoya staying on most of the time for protection of the lens. This is one of the best Nikon cameras ever made, particularly for entry-level photography but I wouldn’t change mine for another, ‘professional’ model. It’s rare that I need a shutter speed above 1/1,000th and on A mode the shutter speeds are stepless (1/75th or 1/840th for example). . . #nikonfg20 #nikonseriese50mm #hipstamatic #frankblens #slickrock191 #shootfilm #35mmfilm #nikonuk #fg20 #photobyadrianrmarsh (at Kozyatağı) https://www.instagram.com/adrianrmarsh/p/CZL-vpYoxgW/?utm_medium=tumblr
