[QUOTE="LensWork, post: 331580, member: 1283"] To actually answer the question rather than debate the merit or logic of the requirement: the Nikon FM is (was) built like a tank yet still fairly small and light. It is an all manual, mechanical camera with the batteries only powering the light meter. It uses Nikon "F" mount lenses so the lenses can also mount on a Nikon digital body. Used FMs can be found pretty cheaply, around $100 or less with a 50mm lens. BTW, I completely agree with starting Photo 1 students on film. [/QUOTE]
