Nikon FM10 35mm Film Camera

Pros: Great construction, simple to use, inexpensive
Cons: no significant flaws...especially considering the price

If you wonder why companies still make film, then the FM10 is not for you. If you can't live without auto-focus or program mode, then the FM10 is not for you. BUT.......if you actually enjoy using a camera in manual mode, or you prefer a camera that ...

Pros: Its a Nikon Uses Nikon Lenses Feels good in Hand Plentiful on the used market
Cons: Not All Nikon lens will work. Can be overpriced on the used market

Ladies and Gentleman, this camera is not an F5. One should not expect to feel or act like one. It's Nikon's low cost "My First SLR" type of camera. It fits its role very well. I bought his camera on an impulse. I'm glad I did. I got it off of ...

Pros: Fully manual operation, no battery needed, vast supply of new and used lenses and accessories
Cons: Standard starter package not appropriate, focusing screens not interchangeable

There are already enough great reviews to help you decide whether or not the Nikon FM10 is the camera for you, so I won't write another one. This one is a bit esoteric--it only discusses the suitability of the FM10 for astrophotography, an admittedly ...

Pros: Lightweight, good viewfinder,
Cons: feels a bit cheap, wierd light meter

I haven`t used a manual for ages, since I foolishly sold the Pentax K-1000 I used to have. One of my reasons for holding off on a manual camera was/is my eyesight. I do wear glasses, even so the last time I used a manual camera the shots all came out...

Pros: Takes almost every Nikkor Lens. Nice little camera
Cons: It's a 250 manual camera what do you expect?

First off, note the price. Around 200-250 dollars. Do not expect this camera to knock your socks off such as a F100 or F5. Get serious here. It's a 100 percent manual camera, just like every other review says. The single best thing is that it...

Pros: Totally Manual and easy to use. Excellent camera for quality shots.
Cons: Some areas made of plastic on the body.

Out off all the things I wanted this year for Christmas it was the Nikon FM10. I have always preferred manual cameras and for one main reason. What you see is what you get. Unlike other cameras where you can look through the viewfinder, see a great shot...

Pros: 1.Depth-of-the-field preview 2.Sensitive shutter button 3.Convenient for composition.
Cons: Body material not durable.

A low-budget camera,Nikon F10,may not as feature-rich as the top-of-the-line camera such as Canon EOS-1N or a Leica.It is a blessing in disguise.The dearth of features does not put the photographer at a disadvantage.He may make the best use of the...

Pros: smooth shutter, lightweight, easy to remove lens, idiot friendly.
Cons: electronic light meter, but it's really cool otherwise.

this is the newest camera in my photography class, and it has easily become my favorite. everyone else seems to complain about the body, but if you aren't inclined to smash your camera up against hard objects or drop it on concrete, i don't see why...

Pros: It is cheap and affordable
Cons: none

Planning to buy a simple single lens reflex camera that is easy to handle plus cheap and affordable?. Well, Nikon FM 10 is your ideal choice. FM 10 of Nikon is the popular choice whole over the world.

Now, let me inform you about the features...

Pros: Great student camera - depth of field, split screen, multiple exposures, battery free (nearly), compatible with most Nikon lenses
Cons: Does not come with the coolness of an automatic SLR

Do you like stick shift autos, do-it-yourself kits, and want to get a hands-on on taking good pictures? This camera may just be for you.

Warning - if you are looking for an SLR to graduate from your all-automatic point and shoot,...

Pros: some neat features
Cons: light-meter, and body construction

The Nikon FM10 has some good features, but along with some annoyingly frustrating ones. As a photography student, i received this camera as a gift, and sold it 2 months later on ebay. It is not a exactly a bad camera, but not the best either.

...

Pros: It is a Nikon. . . barely.
Cons: It doesn't live up to Nikon's reputation.

Out of the many Nikon cameras I have dealt with this one is by far the most disappointing. I hate to say that because I know that I can't blame Nikon. . . they didn't make this camera. Cosina (at least I think that is the company's name) made this...

Pros: Light, Attractive, User Friendly, Preview Button, Multiple Exposures switch, fantastic for beginner
Cons: Light weight, won't accommodate extreme speeds (i.e. 6400 film or greater than 2000 shutter speed)

After taking and developing pictures for an entire semester with a borrowed camera, I decided it was time to buy my own. The photographers told me that Nikon was "the best piece of crushed glass ever made." I shopped around and came across...

Pros: Easy to use
Cons: Flimsy and cheaply made

My experience with this camera is very negative.

My School of Design bought 25 FM10 bodies with 35-70mm lenses and one year later over half are now broken.

The body is made of plastic. Also the 35-70 that comes with the kit is not...

Pros: tough, lightweight, cheap
Cons: no automation

A few years back Nikon Corporation entered into an agreement with Cosina to produce a camera that Nikon would market in the third world. Cosina was the right choice, since they had been manufacturing just the camera that Nikon wanted, for many years....
