What I love about this model is that it never gets in your way—it forces you to learn and rewards you with beautiful images. Finding one in this 'Like New' condition is a rare treat, as most were used heavily in student labs. It’s a rugged, honest piece of Japanese engineering that is virtually immortal. The 50mm f\/1.7 M-series lens is a fantastic match; it’s smaller and sharper than the earlier versions, making the whole kit feel balanced and nimble.
