Furthermore, although this camera has so many years, still comes with the original F2 Nikkor H objective, as well as original and very rare case. What’s more, on this camera stands the inscription “made in occupied Japan”, which definitely gives us some clues about the time in which it was made. Although it was originally presented as an ordinary Nikon camera, later named Nikon One, that in later years got successors in the form of M and S model.
