I also have a near pristine Nikon FA film camera with a Nikon 35-70 f3.5-4.5 manual focus zoom lens. The lens, which I picked up recently, operates smoothly and appears to be fungus free and shows very little dust. The lens come with caps. Along with the camera, body cap, comfort strap, and user manual, there is also an original Nikon FA ever ready case, which are somewhat rare and often expensive if bought on eBay, etc. Personally, I have never used any ever ready case, as I found them cumbersome.
This FA shows very little wear as you can see in the pics. It has the honeycomb shutter curtain that was highly touted in the camera heyday. It was also the first Nikon to use matrix metering. The interior is clean, as is the battery compartment. I will ship it with two L44 batteries installed that probably have a decent life left to them. The meter seems to be right on the mark.
About a month ago, I shot a roll of color film with it and had it processed at a local Walgreens. All prints were sharp, well exposed, and showed no light leakage at all. I do not offer any camera for sale that I have not tested with film beforehand.
Outfit Price: $145 with $10 shipping via USPS priority mail to CONUS only. I will accept PayPal, money order or check. The latter two must clear prior to shipping. I will offer a 7 day return period if not satisfied, and the outfit is returned in the same condition as when sold.
PM me if interested. Or to make a reasonable offer. Check sold listings on eBay for similar condition FA's.
I have sold cameras and flashes on the Hog previously with no complaints. I have a 100% feedback rating on eBay with 137 sales as marcman66. Also posted on eBay 1/12/18.
