Recently I’ve been on the hunt for a fully mechanical SLR with at least a 1/4000s shutter speed. Enter the Nikon FM2. This beast of a film camera is 100% mechanical and has a lens selection spanning over 70 years. This video is my first roll with the camera and holy crap…I’m in love! It has me considering replacing my Leica M5 and Leica M6. It’s that good!
