Budget Nikon Delivers - FM10

by Howard_Creech Howard_Creech is a Lead on Epinions in Electronics, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, May 27 '00
Pros: tough, lightweight, cheap
Cons: no automation
A few years back Nikon Corporation entered into an agreement with Cosina to produce a camera that Nikon would market in the third world. Cosina was the right choice, since they had been manufacturing just the camera that Nikon wanted, for many years....

everything you need and nothing more...

by uniq Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 06 '05
Pros: Great construction, simple to use, inexpensive
Cons: no significant flaws...especially considering the price
If you wonder why companies still make film, then the FM10 is not for you. If you can't live without auto-focus or program mode, then the FM10 is not for you. BUT.......if you actually enjoy using a camera in manual mode, or you prefer a camera that ...

You See What You Get

by frainke Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Nov 29 '01
Pros: Totally Manual and easy to use. Excellent camera for quality shots.
Cons: Some areas made of plastic on the body.
Out off all the things I wanted this year for Christmas it was the Nikon FM10. I have always preferred manual cameras and for one main reason. What you see is what you get. Unlike other cameras where you can look through the viewfinder, see a great shot...

A very good (but not perfect) camera for astrophotography and nighttime photography.

by jsquarejj Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Dec 18 '03
Pros: Fully manual operation, no battery needed, vast supply of new and used lenses and accessories
Cons: Standard starter package not appropriate, focusing screens not interchangeable
There are already enough great reviews to help you decide whether or not the Nikon FM10 is the camera for you, so I won't write another one. This one is a bit esoteric--it only discusses the suitability of the FM10 for astrophotography, an admittedly ...

A Low-cost Camera Can Take Beautiful,Sharp Photos!

by Jason.Chan , Mar 14 '01
Pros: 1.Depth-of-the-field preview 2.Sensitive shutter button 3.Convenient for composition.
Cons: Body material not durable.
A low-budget camera,Nikon F10,may not as feature-rich as the top-of-the-line camera such as Canon EOS-1N or a Leica.It is a blessing in disguise.The dearth of features does not put the photographer at a disadvantage.He may make the best use of the...

Excellent budget all-manual student camera

by kundansen , Dec 07 '00
Pros: Great student camera - depth of field, split screen, multiple exposures, battery free (nearly), compatible with most Nikon lenses
Cons: Does not come with the coolness of an automatic SLR
Do you like stick shift autos, do-it-yourself kits, and want to get a hands-on on taking good pictures? This camera may just be for you.

Warning - if you are looking for an SLR to graduate from your all-automatic point and shoot,...

Nikon FM10 - Not the Best

by grasshoppa , Nov 22 '00
Pros: some neat features
Cons: light-meter, and body construction
The Nikon FM10 has some good features, but along with some annoyingly frustrating ones. As a photography student, i received this camera as a gift, and sold it 2 months later on ebay. It is not a exactly a bad camera, but not the best either.

A poor way to attract future customers.

by drsoma765 , Nov 21 '00
Pros: It is a Nikon. . . barely.
Cons: It doesn't live up to Nikon's reputation.
Out of the many Nikon cameras I have dealt with this one is by far the most disappointing. I hate to say that because I know that I can't blame Nikon. . . they didn't make this camera. Cosina (at least I think that is the company's name) made this...

Great Camera, only problem is how limited your imagination is.

by hilighter88 , Jan 30 '03
Pros: Takes almost every Nikkor Lens. Nice little camera
Cons: It's a 250 manual camera what do you expect?
First off, note the price. Around 200-250 dollars. Do not expect this camera to knock your socks off such as a F100 or F5. Get serious here. It's a 100 percent manual camera, just like every other review says. The single best thing is that it...

nikon rocks my socks once again

by natasharama , Mar 07 '01
Pros: smooth shutter, lightweight, easy to remove lens, idiot friendly.
Cons: electronic light meter, but it's really cool otherwise.
this is the newest camera in my photography class, and it has easily become my favorite. everyone else seems to complain about the body, but if you aren't inclined to smash your camera up against hard objects or drop it on concrete, i don't see why...

Great for a previous point-and-shooter

by 1opinion , Apr 06 '00
Pros: features per low cost

I bought this camera at the recommendation of the salesperson. I had signed up for a beginning photography class last minute and was looking for my first fully manual camera. He immediately grabbed this camera and said 'Your photography teacher will love...

by 11thhrscholar , Oct 17 '00
Pros: Light, Attractive, User Friendly, Preview Button, Multiple Exposures switch, fantastic for beginner
Cons: Light weight, won't accommodate extreme speeds (i.e. 6400 film or greater than 2000 shutter speed)
After taking and developing pictures for an entire semester with a borrowed camera, I decided it was time to buy my own. The photographers told me that Nikon was "the best piece of crushed glass ever made." I shopped around and came across...

Great Entry Level Camera

by VTSarah21 , Apr 10 '00
Pros: lightweight, easy focus/zoom/aperture,depth-of-view preview
Cons: not the highest quality body
Not having much experience with manual SLR cameras, this camera is working out great. It has been easy to use. Very lightweight, easy focus and zoom. All my pictures have turned out fantastic. I have been able to get up close and focus on small details....

Best beginners camera

by zeu96a , Jan 24 '00
Pros: Price, Quality, Brand, Warranty, Capabilities, Learning Experience
Cons: Flash must be purchased separately, winder might get in the way.
The Nikon FM-10 is the best beginners camera on the market. In contrast with other camera manufacturers, Nikon is the best name in the market.

I shopped long and hard for a camera that escaped the cheap, plastic,"point and shoot"...
