I'm going to start using Nikon equipment and I'm trying to find out information on some of the commonly available bodies. I probably won't be using any non-AI lenses and will focus insted on newer equipment. How well does the older Nikon FM handle the newest lenses? Will it accept the newer AF lenses within the limits imposed by the camera itself? All I'm wondering is whether the old FM can take the newer lenses? I will likely buy a manual focus body first and then add an AF SLR later. As such I am interested in getting a camera that can accept AF lenses. In addition I am interested in the FM series camera because of their all mechanical capabilities. I would like to be able to consider as many options as possable. I'm aware that the FM-2 can take these lenses but if by chance I find a great deal somewhere I would consider the older original FM as well. It's my understanding that these were great cameras and well made. I would appreciate any feedback folks would care to share while I make my purchase decision. By the by I'm switching from the Minolta MD system. I have already chosen Nikon over Canon and others because of superior compatibility and availability of various system components, as well as the overall reputation for quality Nikon enjoys. Thanks Curt
