Nikkormat FT2 – Manual 35mm SLR Camera (Serial: 5281816)

The Nikkormat FT2 is a rugged, mechanical 35mm SLR camera produced by Nikon in the mid-1970s. Designed for serious enthusiasts and semi-professionals, it features a reliable mechanical shutter, full manual controls, and through-the-lens (TTL) light metering. The FT2 is compatible with Nikon’s Pre-AI (Non-AI) F-mount lenses and was the first Nikkormat to include a hot shoe for flash.
