My camera repairman has some sort of a Nikkormat in his case, for sale. No idea what actual model number, what lens is mounted, or anything else, but was wondering how they are regarded.

I owned one of these cameras from 1975 until the late 1980s, and have always been sorry I let it go. This is probably the best mechanical SLR ever produced anywhere.

When I was younger, I thought that was the coolest looking camera ever. It was just "all-business" in a brutish sort of way, and of course, it screamed "PRO!".
Of course, nowadays, elegant, understated design is my preference. But, that big old Nikon still gets the blood rushing through my veins.
Nice one, Bill.
cheers,
