Full restoration of a heavily broken and rusty 1978 Nikon FE vintage film camera. In this video, you will see the whole process of repairing, restoring, and rebuilding the old famous broken Nikon FE. Nikon FE is one of the electronically controlled shutter speed cameras with fully manual control + aperture priority mode auto shutter speed function added to it. This video is a bit longer due to so many broken parts to deal with. Disassembling the whole shutter unit, rebuilding and adjusting all the shutter speeds are a long journey. I also repainted the covers and the body, which took time. But this is the 1978 Nikon FE!! So I have to do it :). Get your favorite snack and enjoy! I hope you get some useful information from my video.
