Good size and brightness. Info: Shutter speed Match needle for the light meter Build quality: Like a tank! Very robust and I nice feel to it.
Conclusion: This like the first FT camera is just a really amazing! But the FT2 have some improvments. -Better focus screen that have a split image that are surrounded by 1 mm microprism collar focusing aids. -Light meter use a non-toxic silver cell battery. -Hotshoe. -Better film advance lever. FT2 also have a little better feel when you use it. The film advance lever feel better and more robust for example. This use the same up going metal shutter that is extremely reliable and in next to all cases work as new even 35 years later. Same shutter knob that I wasn't a big fan of on the FT. This works great for most cases but can also be in the way for the lens mount release button or the mirror lock. Thumbs up: All mechanical shutter Very reliable Built like a tank Mirror lock Thumbs down: Heavy Want to help me out?
