Is the nikon fm10 is too complicated for a beginner?
I've played with different types of film cameras – manual and automatic, and I think I decided to get this. It's light and I've seen that can take photos buuuuut everything is manual! and I'm not sure whether or not I have all the knowledge when it comes to settings f-stop, etc. to take good pictures. What do you think? Will it be easy if I do a little research and only experience with it? http://www.amazon.com/NIKON-FM10-35mm-Camera-Kit/dp/B00006I5JN
You can be an excellent camera for a beginner. It's a real basic camera manual and that makes a person learn to handle a camera that invaluable. Below I've included some links photo dealer if still shopping around, some of these distributors also sell used cameras which can be a money saving option. Have fun making pictures. Good luck. Mark
