The FM was one of two compact SLRs introduced by Nikon to compete in the consumer category of SLR systems with the Olympus OM line of cameras. The FM model has a fully mechanical body, with a TTL center-weighted CdS meter. Its counterpart, the FE, was a electronically operated body. Nikon, in introducing the FM, was responding to customer interest in a full-featured but compact SLR system. The FM is much smaller than the professional F line of Nikon SLRs, but retains the traditional rugged metal construction as its forebears.
Specifications
- Shutter Speed of 1-1/1000 plus B
- Hot Shoe
- Manual film advance and rewind
- Self-timer
- Depth-of-field preview
- Double-Exposure lever
Lens Selection
The FM was designed to accept AI and AI-s mount lenses, but can also accept F-mount lenses using stop-down metering. This means that virtually any lens made from the early F mount lenses up to modern autofocus lenses (albeit without AF functionality) can be mated to the body.
