The Basics: Understanding Nikon Vintage Camera Parts and Accessories

Ever since Louis Daguerre released the first commercially viable camera in 1839, people have enjoyed photography as a hobby and a profession. Some people developed a loyalty to Nikon after it released its first camera in 1948. Many enthusiasts can repair vintage cameras to use or sell.

Nikon has made many different types, including:

• Single-lens reflex: These options use a mirror and prism system to allow photographers to see the exact image that is seen through the lens.
• Rangefinder: These options require the photographer to line up two images on top of each other to capture a clear picture.
• Twin-lens reflex: These options have two lenses with one connected to the viewfinder while the other lets light in to capture the image on the film.
• Point-and-shoot cameras: These options are usually easier to operate because the unit focuses automatically.

A camera is made up of many different parts, including:

• Lenses: These attach to the front of the camera and capture light forming the image on film.
• Viewfinder: This part allows the photographer to see the image.
• Shutter release: This button opens the shutter for a predetermined amount of time.
• Aperture ring:Turning this ring determines how far the lens will open to let in light.
• Film advance lever: Pushing this lever after taking a picture advances the film.
• Rewind lever: Turning this lever rerolls the film so that you can safely take it out of the camera. Often, pulling this lever opens the camera's back.
• Film compartment: This interior pocket is designed to hold the film.
• Flash: Some cameras have a light at the top for taking pictures in low-light situations.

There are many different types of accessories available, including:

• Bags: These coverings are designed to protect the body and accessories, and they are available in many colors and designs.
• Cleaning kits: Cleaning solutions, cleaning cloths, lens cleaning pens, and an air blow cleaner are available in many different cleaning kits.
• Lenses: Lenses come with different mounting systems and different focal lengths.
• Lens filters: Polarizing, neutral density, infrared, and many other choices may be available.
• Lens hoods: Attached to the front of the lens, hoods often stop light from entering from the body from the sides.
• Flashes: Photographers can choose the degree of lighting by using different flashes.
• Tripods: These three-legged attachments help photographers hold the body of the camera steady.
