I deviced to take apart an orignal Nikon F 35mm camera today, to see
what's inside.

About 5000 parts is the answer, for a completely mechanical 35mm camera.


WHY???!!! did you smash a Nikon F body???

They are still worth in excess of $200 each and for us
collectors..they are freaking priceless!!!

Barbarians - they break what they don't understand.


Tearing stuff apart is the greatest way to learn about how things work.


Yes....if you have lots of money or lots of product to beat to death.

Im curious..would you use the same technique to learn how a Mercedes
SLS AMG GT works?

They are only a quarter million dollars each.


If I had a spare, sure, why not. While I don't fix anything related to
cars, they do seem obnoxously designed with all sorts of pegs and covers
that have to be broken apart to get to anything.

Hell, even headlamp changes require a tear down and small hands.
