There were Circus types before Lawrence Migdale. Before Mary Ellen Mark, before Diane Arbus. Plenty enough to go around.

Nikon Cameras 1946 To circa 199? George Eastman House Technology Archive



Click here,George Eastman House Exhibit to view thumbnails of each model, then click on each to get specific information of model selected.

It's interesting to note that the F3 and the FM models, (forward), were designed by an Italian dude named Giorgio Giugiaro.

SInce the Nikon F, FM, F3, were literally designed with professionals in mind, I thought that the omission of the F36, and MD-20 motors bothered me a bit, as well as the ones I can't remember. Anyone want to help an old geezer out with the model # of motor for the F2, FM, & FM2?

Here's what's pictured:
