Nikon FM3a 35mm SLR camera body

Very good condition. Minor brassing on base plate, some wear on the coating of film transport riders.

'Nikon FM3A is a manual-focusing SLR (single-lens reflex) film-based camera released in July 2001, offering aperture-priority auto and manual exposure controls.  The aperture-priority auto-exposure (AE) mode allows the user to easily obtain the correct exposure by selecting a desired aperture, since the camera automatically determines the optimum shutter speed for the selected aperture.'
