Restoration

Old film cameras are a dime a dozen, almost literally. No one (at least around here) wants them anymore. While I have the professional series of Nikon film cameras, (F3, F4, F5) some of the lower level have peaked my interest.
This is a Nikon FE with MD-12 motor drive, and 50mm f/2 lens. Not fully functional, but I got it for a song and a dance. I'm trying my hand at restoration and so far, it's been going pretty well. For a camera made nearly 40 years ago, parts are easy to come by.
As with all my cameras, it will see use. Unsure just yet how, but I will post something I take with it, in the near future.
