2 weeks of film with Nikon FM2

 

Time to switch from digital to analog for two weeks for a start. Today I will shoot Cyberpunk 800T and Harman Phoenix 200. Still not sure if the Nikon FM2 is ok.. fingers crossed.

New try with the Nikon FM2

 

One of the Nikon FM2 cameras was dead even when I changed the battery and the other. Something went wrong when I loaded the film "Cyberpunk 800T" and this camera is easy to load film in.

Never give up, next week another try with the Nikon FM2. Knentmare Pan 200 (Black & White) I really need to know if I can trust this camera before I start my project. Probably not the camera's fault but my own.

Cyberpunk 800T & Nikon FM2

 

Now the Nikon FM2 is loaded with Cyberpunk 800T. It's a bit strange that there is so little information about this film online. Is it Cinestill 800T? I'm going to test this roll next week.

Nikon FM2 ~ More analog photography in 2026

 
I'll be back again with more analog photography in 2026. I have just borrowed two Nikon FM2n from my brother Peter. This camera was procused by Nippon Kogaku K.K. in Tokyo in Japan during the years 1982-2021. And I got lots of lenses. 3x 50mm, 2x 35mm and one 105mm.

The black one will always be loaded with black & white and the silver with color film. I have a bad habit of forgetting what film I have in my cameras. 

I've only had the Nikon F2 and Nikon FE2 before, so it's time for some YouTube help to see what the difference is. All I know is that the FM2 has the same multi-exposure feature as the FE2, so I love that and will use it for a project.
