Here's an Very NICE SLR Film Camera Body --- a Nikon F3 HP (High Eye Point) Camera body with HP Finder and Instruction Books. The HP is a special viewfinder that was introduced in 1983 that gives a better view if you wear glasses.
It's in Beautiful Condition--- it's Used and the Exterior has some light signs of use--- some smudges, a little brass showing on some edges--- nothing major--- and a few tiny nicks/dings here and there. (the most noticeable being on the prism housing above the N, but even it's not bad) Other than that, just some scratches on the bottom and general use wear. Nice black paint otherwise. Technically.... without being a camera store technician, I put fresh batteries in it and I can tell you it winds smoothly, and the shutter fires crisply at the different speeds all the way up and down the scale. There's some dust looking in the viewfinder, and it has a Grid Focusing Screen. The light meter inside works as it should... responds to light for simple +/- match-needle metering. But I haven't shot actual film with it, so no guarantees and I'm not familiar with all the nuances. Inside the film chamber it's also clean.... looks ready to shoot! I won't call it Mint Condition.... but it's Very Nice! A GREAT Camera for the traditional shooter and a great Collector piece as well.
Comes with Body Cap, a Nice Domke Strap and an assortment of Instruction Books and Pamphlets that are in GREAT Condition. What you see is what you'll get--- the actual item for sale is pictured--- please examine the photos.
Continental US Shipping will be $13.50. I will ship the Next Day after purchase. It will be packed well and SAFE. International Shipping via the ebay program.
PLEASE READ THIS--- By Buying you Agree: I am not Amazon or a professional Camera Store seller--- just an old camera collector/shooter selling some USED items. I'm not here trying to rip anybody off or sneak one past you. But that said... I'm not into having things go back and forth based on opinion, or risk "part swapping" either. So I'm sorry, I can't sell this item on Approval--- it's being sold As Is, No Warranty, No Buyer's Remorse, No Returns. I've been a photographer for 35+ years and I know how cameras work and what to look for and can recognize when something is broken. It works as described, but I can't "Bench Test" every thing to factory specs and unless it's Brand New... I can't guarantee that every single aspect may be Perfect... especially when it's a 40+ year old item! Any significant defects that I know of are either pictured or described to the best of my knowledge and I try to be detailed and truthful, but I can't describe every every millimeter of it. As expected with age, Old SLR cameras may be found with a few nicks or blemishes here and there or a few additional specs of dust that I failed to mention, particularly inside the viewfinder... but they won't affect the photos and would hardly diminish it... unless you expect everything to be 100% Perfect. If it's junk or even "C" Grade... I won't sell it! What you see is what you'll get and I package my items well, so it arrives in the same condition as shown.
