Review on 📸 Nikon FM-10 35mm SLR Camera Kit: High-Quality Images with 35-70mm F3.5-4.8 Zoom Lens & Camera Case by Mark Colbert

This 35mm is almost the perfect film camera for school children. He won't feed you when it comes to workouts that really help you in the long run. In the "press this button and you're in focus" era, this camera is one of the few remaining non-autofocus 35mm cameras. It also doesn't change exposure levels depending on what the camera offers (e.g. AV or TV mode, which some cameras have). This gives you creative freedom as some shots have a completely different mood when underexposed or slightly overexposed. As a photographer, you should master manual focusing. Sometimes the computer in your camera just doesn't focus perfectly on the eye you want to focus on, or for something as precise as very flat macro photography you need pinpoint accuracy that the computer can't provide for you. This lens is great because it looks like a classic 35mm lens, except you don't have to worry about breaking the light meter or other small parts inside. You don't have to worry about the picture quality either. The whale lens in this camera is very sharp. It's a bit limiting considering it's f/3.5, which rules out very low light (but graininess can be good, as opposed to digital noise; graininess has an artistic quality), but given the price and the quality of the whole kit is great. You can get a used one from the 70's or 80's for a lot less, but chances are something is broken in this thing and you might not know it until you've spent 2 hours getting the first reel in its class develop. So rather spend a little more and grab it, it's worth it. Edit 12-9-10: I still love it, I've taken a few street photos with it as it's really compact compared to a large DSLR, but I found a major downside is the build quality. There is a lot of plastic in it and I dropped it once which resulted in a huge dent. The silver parts look metallic but aren't, it's some sort of chrome paint covering most of the plastic. I don't care about my gear, so this thing is starting to look pretty ugly. Though not completely broken. I said the kit lens was sharp in my review, but now I know it's not as good as I thought it would be. I recommend a used Nikon e-series 50mm 1.8 ais, which can be bought cheaply on the used market.
