Nikon F Photomic FTN 35mm SLR Camera + 50mm f/1.4 Nikkor S Pre Ai Lens

The Nikon F Photomic FTN represents one of the most important cameras in 35mm history. As the flagship of Nikon’s system in the late 1960s and early 1970s, it combined the legendary reliability of the Nikon F body with the FTN Photomic finder, which introduced center-weighted metering—an innovation that became the industry standard for decades. This was the workhorse of countless professionals, from war correspondents to magazine shooters, and it cemented Nikon’s reputation worldwide.

This kit comes paired with the Nikkor-S 50mm f/1.4 Pre-Ai lens, a fast standard prime known for its beautiful rendering, smooth bokeh, and classic Nikon sharpness. Together, they make a historically significant and highly usable camera setup.

Condition: Excellent

This Nikon F Photomic FTN shows minor cosmetic wear consistent with age but is in excellent overall condition.

Meter: Meter is active and responds, though its accuracy has not been formally tested.

Lens: The Nikkor-S 50mm f/1.4 Pre-Ai lens is clean and clear, with no haze, fungus, or scratches. Focus and aperture operate smoothly.
