Nikon FE 35mm SLR camera body for parts SR. 3444305 as is sale

Nikon introduced the FM and then the FE as compliments to the Nikkormat line as mid-tier advanced amateur photographic cameras. These cameras were more compact and lighter than the F/F2 and while the FM was fully manual the FE had an electronic shutter and Aperture Priority auto exposure. The FE offers a shutter speed of 8 sec to 1/1000 with a max speed in automatic mode of 1/125 with electronic flash. When batteries fail it has a fall-back speed of 1/90s marked M90. Also provided is an aperture priority automatic exposure mode which can expose up to 1min. AE lock is also provided but it is hidden on the self timer lever. Push toward the lens for AE lock function. Recommended batteries are 2x 1.55v SR44 silver oxide or 1x 3v 2L44, but can still function with basic LR44. A battery check feature is also available. Batteries must be removed when using the optional motor drives MD-11 and MD-12.
