If the Nikon Z FC 28mm kit does not arrive yet, go to your brother.In the first place, why do you want Nikon Z FC?I want you to think about it again, is that a spec?Is it because it's small and lightweight?Is it comfortable to use?Is it a design?
If the specifications are important, I feel like Z50 is fine, but is it different?This is a built -in speedlight and the price is good, so it's a great deal.The weight and size of Z FC and Z50 do not change so much.If you value the comfort and feeling, I guess Nikon Z 6II or Z 7II in the FX (35mm full size) format is better.Or Z 9 that I haven't seen yet.I don't know.
So, I think there are many people who choose Z FC due to the goodness of the remaining design.I also appreciate the design, but how much do you know about Nikon NEW M2, the original family, called heritage design?Since Z FC does not arrive, let's attack with the original story this time.

For a while after the first Nikon SLR "Nikon F" appeared in 1959, only expensive flagship machines like F were allowed to enter the name "Nikon" in the camera product name.Others were "Nikkorex" (Nicolex) or "Nikomat" (Nicomart).
It was in the early 1970s.It is good to go out with Nicomart FTN with brave shooting today, but from the other side, if you lower the Nikon F2 photomick from your shoulder and find a person walking dashingly, it shifts the strap and Nicomart.I turned the FTN on the back side and passed each other carefully so that Nikon F2 Photo Mic could not find it.
For a while since birth, Nikon's SLR was a custom that other manufacturers could not be seen very much, and there was a "camera hierarchy" due to differences in the nameplate.The S -system of the rangefinder camera was a different direction because it was the name of Nikon regardless of the class.
Nikon EL2, which first defeated this class system, appeared in 1977.The form of the exterior was a middle -class aperture priority AE machine Nicomato EL camera, so some conservatives asked me why I used Nikon.did.
However, even though the appearance was similar, the contents were greatly renewed, and the AI method was adopted, and the successor to Nicomart EL achieved an unusual career as a Nikon EL2 and broke the conventional custom.
ニコンEL2。ニコマートELWの改良型と思いきや中身は刷新されておりまして、ニコマートFT3みたいに「Ai化したんだからそれでいいだろ」的な感じはないのです。だからNikon銘に昇格したのかもしれません。後のニコンFE並みの機能を有しております。最近になって、かなり好きになったりしている私は病気でしょうか。はい病気です。By the way, Nicomart existed at the same time, and the Nicomart FT2 body of Nicomart FT2 became Nicomart FT3.This was a mystery, not "Nikon FT3".Nevertheless, it is now popular due to used market theory, probably due to the small number of productions, because the Nikon FM described later appears immediately after this, because the Nikon FM described later is small, and it is now popular due to used market theory.There is a reversal phenomenon.
ニコマートFT3です。ニコマートFT2をAi化したマイナーチェンジ機です。うちの個体はF3と同時期に購入した記憶がありかなり使いました。デカいし重たいし、無骨なんですが、個人的には好きですニコマートシリーズ。In this way, immediately after Nikon introduced the AI method, it was mainly a model that improved a photomic viewfinder for F2 to AI compatible, and a model that improved the old body, but as early as 1977.The first AI -converted Nikon FM will appear.
This is a full -mechanical camera that uses a vertical metal shutter belonging to the Nicomart FT3 class, but it is smaller and lighter, the light receiving element is GPD, and the inner display of the viewfinder is " -◯ +" by LED.。
If "○" lights up, it will be appropriate exposure, but it will be divided into 5 levels depending on the display such as " -○" or "○ +", but it is actually more difficult to understand than the guideline type.did.It was also a big uri in this era that the dedicated motor drive MD-11 was enabled without remodeling and unadjusted.The frame speed is 3.It's about 5 frames/seconds, like a winder.Since there was no off-timer, the battery on the body side was exhausted unless the power of the MD-11 was turned off.This is improved as an MD-12.
I think Nikon FM has a connection of the product class or design philosophy from the Nicomart FT system, but the shutter dial has moved from the mount base to the top, so it has finally become a Futu single -lens reflex camera.There is an image that was done.
In addition, since the AI -linked pin can jump up, it is possible to install the old nikkor of the non -AI method.Nicomart's inscription was finally abolished, and Nikon's camera became Nikon's inscription except for the underwater camera Nikonos.
Nikon FE, a squeezed AE machine equipped with an electronic shutter in 1978, also appeared as an FM brother machine.Except for some, the design is just like FM.What was interesting in FE was that the viewfinder was a guideline that resembled Nikon EL2.As a display method, there is a feeling that it has receded than the LED display of the FM, but when setting exposure in manual, the amount of exposure is easier to understand than FM.Is the viewfinder screen a replacement type because it is differentiated from FM?
As mentioned earlier, Nikon FM seems to have been popular as a middle class, an intermediate machine, or for beginners, but it can be used for advanced altoers and professionals by becoming the "Nikon" brand.I have the impression that it has become like this.It's not Nicomart but Nikon.It was also suitable as a sub camera.I think it was a big meaning that it was small and lightweight.
FM is a very good camera, and sometimes it is used to take it out, but I am satisfied with the fact that the film winding is a single operation method.The shutter sound may be the most FM/FE camera.Still, some people thought that the big and heavy cameras were Nikon's dignity and charm and did not evaluate the FM system, but this is due to personal preferences and values.It also exists.
ニコンFM。FM/FEシリーズの初号機ですが、シャッターボタンの周囲のリングや巻き戻しノブなどにローレットが刻んであるなど、New FM2より仕上げにこだわっているいるように見えます。写りに関係ないとこまでカネかけてます。仕様としては平凡ですが、ニコマートFT3からシェイプアップしたイメージで、凝縮感があります。ニコンFMのボディ上部です。シャッターダイヤルがフツーの一眼レフと同じ位置になりました。最高シャッター速度1/1,000秒、シンクロ速度1/125秒。ニコマートFT3と仕様は同じです。フィルム巻き上げレバー上部の円形の張り革はNew FM2まで踏襲されますが、FM3Aからは採用されませんでした。ムダだと思われたのでしょうか。In 1980, Nikon F3, which is equipped with an electronic shutter and adopts aperture priority AE, appears, but the flagship machine has finally been digitized, so the mechanical FM that can be operated normally without using a battery.As a sub camera, there is a place where the significance of existence has been enhanced again.
Again, some of the professional photographers said that electronic shutter cameras that use batteries like F3 were useless, so FM may have been noticed as a backup, but F3 is a flagship machine.It was so robust that the battery was good, so I didn't really have any problems.
And in 1982, the successor Nikon FM2, which has a full model of FM, will appear.A major feature compared to FM is that the maximum shutter speed has been speeded up to 1/4,000 seconds.
The installation of high -speed shutters was noticed because it was possible to capture the dynamic body more clearly, but unlike the current digital camera, there are few high sensitivity in colored positive film, so even in the daytime sunny weather.It is surprisingly difficult to use 1/4,000 seconds regularly.There were opinions that large -diameter lenses could be used with open aperture even under high brightness conditions, but it seems that those who evaluate this are also limited.
I think that the professional focused on the maximum speed of 1/4,000 seconds, the speed of the synchro speed from 1/125 seconds to 1/200 seconds of FM.The F3 was equipped with a horizontal plane shutter, so the highest speed of synchro was 1/80 seconds.
20年ほど前に撮影したカットですが、昔から同じようなものを撮影しとりますね。ええ、成長はありません。Fマウントニッコール35mmレンズの中でいちばん好きなAi Nikkor 35mm F2Sで撮影しています。ニコンNew FM2Ai Nikkor 35mm F2S（F8・1/250秒）フジクロームプロビア100F執筆にあたり、New FM2に合わせてAi Nikkor 28mm F2.8Sを探したのですが、防湿庫の奥底にお隠れになったのか、締め切りまで発見することができませんでした。ですがポジをあさっていたら撮影した写真は出てきました。すげーよく写るレンズです。最短撮影距離が0.2mということでワイドマクロ的に使えます。設計者を表彰したいです。ニコンNew FM2 Ai Nikkor 28mm F2.8S（F8・1/250秒）フジクロームプロビア100F
FM2 has been focused on news photographers, sports photographers, and photographers, mainly portrait, as the synchro is easier during the day.Even now, I can watch it on TV, but if you want to understand the inside of the instructions through the windows, or if you want to grasp the inside of the instruction car through the window, it is a must to use a strobe, regardless of day and night weather.The purpose was to ensure that the target subject was fresh, even in the backlight, the light, and any ray state.
In the FM2 review at that time, I remember reading a report that some types of strobes have a speedlight that synchronizes in 1/250 seconds due to the long and short time of flash time.Looking at the shutter speed dial of FM2, the highest synchro speed of 1/200 seconds is independent, and is described in red as "X200".The notation of 1/125 seconds is red notation like FM, so it usually feels like using the synchro speed in 1/125 seconds.It is an ambitious synchro speed of 1/200 seconds, but it gets a bonus impression.
The flip -up function of the AI -linked pin from FM2 has been omitted, and non -AI Nikkor is in principle.FM2 can also be replaced with FM2 that could not be done with FM.
ニコンFE2。FM2を絞り優先AE化して、最高シンクロ速度をFM2よりも高速な1/250秒としました。このこともあり、FM2はNewに改良せねばならなかったのでしょう。このカメラもかなり使用しましたが、AEで撮った記憶がないわけです。ニコンFE2のボディ上部。シャッターダイヤル表記は250表示が赤。別にM250とありますが、メカシャッターの意味ですね。「B」もメカシャッターです。電池がなくても動くということはこの当時のニコン一眼レフでは必須の仕様。A位置は緑ですが、ニコンDfやZ fcでは「1/3STEP」表記が緑色です。これはデザイン的に絞り優先AE機のダイヤルに似せてきている感じがします。It was Nikon FE2, which appeared in 1983 as a successor to Nikon FE, which officially set the highest synchro speed to 1/250 seconds and the maximum speed shutter to 1/4,000 seconds.I don't know if electronic shutters are more flexible than mechanical shutters, but for synchro speed, FM2 has been overtaken by FE2.I remember that the normal 1/250 second notation became much easier to use because it turned red.The TTL automatic dimming function was also adopted, but most of the professionals did not use it.
One year behind Nikon FE2, in 1984, Nikon New FM2, which sets FM2 to 1/250 seconds and 1/4,000 seconds, appears, and the synchro speed is on the shoulder as FE2.。NEW FM2 is a big deal because it will be a long -selling camera until 2001 where the successor Nikon FM3A appears.
ニコンNew FM2です。デザインはFM2とほぼ同じなのになぜに「New」かといえば、FM2のシンクロ速度1/200秒から1/250秒になったからです。わずかな違いですが、ユーザーとしてはかなり進化したように感じました。もしかするとフツーのFM2はレアかもしれません。コレクションにはならないでしょうが、ちょっとだけ欲しいような気もします（笑）。うちにある個体は巻き上げレバーが黒くてパンダみたいになってますが、これで正しいのかなあ。上下カバーをチタン製にしたNew FM2/T。通常販売モデルです。同じく外装をチタン素材としたニコンF3Tに比べて色味が暗くて、誤解を与えるカラーリングです。でもこの個体はけっこう使いました。海外ロケにもサブ機として携行した記憶ありますが、チタンだからといって、特別に頑丈な感じはしません。たぶん裏蓋もノーマルモデルと同じですね。New FM2/Tのボディ上部です。シャッターダイヤル250表記が赤色になりました。FM2では通常表記とは異なる場所に「X200」ポジションがあったので、設定するときには特別感がありましたが、こちらは自然に設定して使える感覚です。Nikon has continued to keep the compatibility of F -mount, whether the camera is AE or AF, so the replacement lens of AF/MF has few constraints on any camera body, so if it is a New FM2, narrow down to the lens.It was possible to use it if there is a ring and AI compatible.
Unlike other manufacturers, the reason why MF SLR continued to survive for a long time was due to the compatibility of the new and old replacement lenses with the unchanged F -mount, but as a single -lens reflex camera that can study the basics of photography.I think it was also meaningful that it became a designated teaching material for a photo school.
New FM2の、おそらく最終バージョンのカタログ表紙です。2000年6月25日とあります。若い女性に使用して欲しいというマーケティングでしょうか。Z fcのそれと似てますね。The substantial finale of the FM/FE SLR is the Nikon FM3A that appears in 2001.Basically, it is a MF single -lens reflex camera equipped with a squeezed priority AE mechanism, so it should be named "FE3", but the name "FM" is crowned without a battery.Is it because it was equipped with a hybrid shutter?
The exterior cover is made of brass.I was surprised that the display in the viewfinder almost followed the FE2 guideline formula.However, as mentioned earlier, this guideline is easy to understand the amount of exposure gap in the manual exposure, so it is a model suitable for beginners.The viewfinder screen has also been improved to become a bright type.This can also be used for New FM2.
The appearance of this new midfielder SLR was surprised, even though the world had already reached a full -fledged digital age.Even in the 21st century, I was impressed by Nikon's attitude to make a new Film MF SLR.
ニコンFM3A。ニコンFM10があるので、厳密には最後のFM/FEシリーズとは呼ぶことはできませんが、電池がなくても問題なく動作するハイブリッドシャッターを搭載したというところに震えました。さすがに時代的に私も多用したとは言いづらいですが、フィルムのテストではよく使います。ただ、斜体の「Nikon」のロゴは20年経っても見慣れないです（笑）＞後藤さんHowever, I personally remember that the Nikon logo of the FM3A turned into a new horned one and had a great discomfort.In addition, I was worried that Silvar Clam Plating was quite whitish, and I lost a little luxury.So I chose a black body.It doesn't matter, but this Z FC is a silver specification, which is due to paint, but there is more luxurious than the silver finish of FM3A.That's excellent.
It is unfortunate that the FM3A could not be rolled up, and all the FM/FE series did not adopt a small winding.By the way, the entry -class Nikon EM and FG can be rolled up.
At the time of the release of FM3A, about the change in the Nikon logo design in an interview with "Asahi Camera" at that time, MR.I had the opportunity to talk to Nikon's Tetsuro Goto, but I remembered that I was told, "After a while, I will be used to the logo, so it's okay."But look at Z FC, it is an old logo.Oh, Nikon DF was also an old logo.I'm sticky, so I'll always say it (laughs).
Pancake type AI Nikkor 45mm F2.The fact that 8P was released at the same time as FM3A was a small event and I was personally surprised.In the world, I planned a MF lens even though it is a digital SLR of AF, and it realizes this release, so I felt the depth of Nikon's fumon.
However, this lens was discontinued early.Probably because it didn't sell much.Pancake lenses remember that there are many requests when they do not exist, but when they go to the person who wants them, they will not sell afterwards.If you request a pancake lens as a manufacturer, understand this well.If you know it, please reflect on it.
New FM2はあまりプライベートでは使用していないと思うのですが、アサインメント撮影の後の残りコマにこのカットが出てきました。フィルムが余って気まぐれに撮影したんでしょうけど、小型軽量のカメラじゃないとこういう悪戯はしないものです。ニコンNew FM2NIKKOR-N Auto 24mm F2.8（Ai改）（F8・1/250秒）フジクロームプロビア100F何かのアサインメントで撮影したものらしく。撮影地はとあるお寺ですが、モノはなんだか記憶にないです。中望遠マクロで撮影しています。露出が難しかったようで、手動ブラケティングしていました。ニコンNew FM2 Ai Micro-Nikkor 105mm F4（F4・1/500秒）フジクロームプロビア100FSince the film camera has been considered as a matter of course, "the development of the camera = automation", Nikon did not do a wonderful job in the sense that even if AE / AF developed, he left the MF SLR camera. I think.
As I mentioned, New FM2 was a long -selling camera for over 15 years, and since F3 has been sold for 20 years, I am surprised by a long -selling that can not be considered with a digital camera.Even now, there are still many loyal users, and there are some prices in the used market.
There are many shooting projects that can be taken by automating the camera, such as being able to take things that could not be taken before, and became more accurate and more convenient.In that sense, we do not deny the development of functions.
However, if you know the basics of photography in the first place, it will be clear that the automation of the camera and the quality of the photo are not special, and conversely, it does not mean that you can take a good photo with a full manual camera.If you shoot with the same film and the same lens, the Nikon F in 1959 and the 21st century FM3A will be exactly the same.
Those who are pleased with the manual exposure and manual focus using a film camera tend to belong to the minority, but the body naturally is natural if you remember the workflow for the purpose of "reflecting".It is a moving thing, and automation is about the degree of "the camera does the camera set with a finger instead".In other words, the existence of MF film SLR such as FM/FE system seems to have improved the dignity of the entire camera system, or Nikon itself.
FM/FEを使用している写真家の写真がないかと探してみたら、巨匠 渡辺義雄先生（1907-2000）の写真が出てきました。撮影は1990年くらいで場所は四ツ谷の事務所ですね。この写真を撮影したカメラはニコンFE2でした。渡辺先生は戦後建築写真の第一人者ですが、戦前は小型カメラでスナップも撮影されていました。手にしたカメラはFE2でしょうか。「最近は小さいカメラがいい」とお話をされていたことは記憶に残ります。ついているレンズはAi Nikkor 20mm f/2.8Sです。のちに渡辺先生にこのプリントを差し上げたら「焼きが悪い」と叱られたこと思い出しました。お詫びします。ニコンFE2 Ai Nikkor 35mm f/1.4S（F4・1/60秒）Kodak T-MAX400The appearance is a classic manual SLR, and the contents are Nikon Z FC, the latest high -performance mirrorless machine.When it was first announced, I thought that the exterior design was all worth it, but when I got it through a monthly review of the monthly magazine, the perception has changed considerably.For the writer who is still playing with the film SLR, I personally want to note that Z FC was a mirrorless machine that could be easily entered without any discomfort even if used.
However, I feel that this is a bit different from the meaning of enjoying manual settings and studying, like the FM/FE system in the film camera era.There must be a holding balance that cannot be dependent on the grip part with a single body, and a small but small but resistance to the palm of the hand.This leads to the charm of important touch when operating the device.You can feel the solitary tools that are different from the smartphone cameras there.
There is a visual sense of security that the existence of the dial does not have to be checked one by one from the liquid crystal window.You can see the setting status without turning on the power supply.However, only the F value is not displayed unless the power is turned on structurally.
Even if it becomes digital, it does not change even if it becomes digital. If you summarize the configuration elements such as ISO sensitivity, shutter speed, and aperture, Z FC inevitably NEW FM2.In other words, it may be a helitage design.
In the September 2021 issue of the digital cameramer gazine currently on sale, we are reviewing Nikon Z FC, so thank you for your cooperation.
ニコン Z fcにNIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8（Special Edition）を装着してみました。デザイン的に努力されていますが鏡胴の径がデブですなあ。マウント部がプラスチックなので、正直、暴れたいです。あと専用フードが用意されいないのはなぜ？ ここはAi Nikkor 28mm f/2.8S用のHN-2をつけ、体裁を整えました。フィルター径は52mmですのでイケます。28mmキットを予約されている方はフード装着はマストです。今から中古カメラ店に走り必ず入手し、Z fc 28mmキットの発売に備えましょう。
