Nikomat FT2 + Nikkor-H Auto 50mm 1:2 — Fully Mechanical Working 35mm SLR A working Nikomat FT2 black-body 35mm SLR paired with the classic Nikkor-H Auto 50mm f/2 standard lens. The Nikomat / Nikkormat FT2 (1975–1977) is the last of the pre-AI fully mechanical Nikkormat bodies, and a favorite among film shooters for its rugged build and dependable Copal Square focal-plane shutter — the camera works at all shutter speeds without a battery. Including: - Camera body (Nikomat FT2, black) - Nikkor-H Auto 50mm 1:2 lens (already attached) (Battery not included) Appearance: Vintage cosmetic wear consistent with age. Some paint loss / brassing on the edges of the top plate, around the strap lugs, and on the bottom plate (typical for black-painted Nikkormat bodies of this era). Leatherette is intact with no peeling. Lens barrel shows light use marks only — no dents or deep scratches. Function: 35mm SLR film camera with fully mechanical, vertical-travel metal Copal Square focal-plane shutter (B, 1 s – 1/1000 s), TTL CdS center-weighted metering, and Nikon F-mount (pre-AI, with meter-coupling prong). - Shutter release: fires (confirmed) - Shutter speed dial (ring around lens mount): operates, all marked speeds (1 – 1/1000 s, B) settable - Mechanical shutter operation: works without battery (a key feature of the FT2) - Film advance lever, mirror, rewind crank, self-timer, ASA dial, hot shoe, depth-of-field preview: all present and appear to move correctly when operated, but accurate operation has not been fully verified - TTL CdS light meter: not fully tested. Powered by a 1.5 V battery (see below); meter response with a fresh battery has not been confirmed Please consider this as a vintage camera sold in working/partially-untested condition. We recommend the buyer service / CLA the camera for long-term reliable use. Battery note: The Nikomat FT2 uses a single 1.5 V silver-oxide / alkaline button battery (SR44 / LR44 — easily available today). This battery powers ONLY the built-in TTL light meter. The shutter and all main mechanical operations work fully independently of the battery, at all speeds. The battery is not included; please prepare one separately. Optical system (lens): Nikkor-H Auto 50mm 1:2 ("Nippon Kogaku Japan" engraving, pre-AI version), serial 855341, 52 mm filter thread. Optics are clear — no fungus, no haze, no balsam separation, and no major scratches visible. A small amount of dust may be present but does not affect image quality. Aperture blades are clean, aperture ring and focus ring both move smoothly. Shutter / film chamber: Metal Copal Square shutter blades appear clean and free of visible dents. The film chamber and pressure plate are clean overall. Notes: This lens is the pre-AI version with the meter-coupling prong ("rabbit ears"). It mates correctly with the FT2 body shown. For use on modern Nikon AI / digital bodies, an AI conversion may be required. Please refer to the photos for the exact condition and accessories. As this is a vintage camera, occasional servicing (CLA) is recommended for long-term reliable use. Shipping: Japan Post Small Packet with tracking number.
