Nikon F2A Photomic

The Nikon F2A Photomic is a professional 35mm film SLR, part of Nikon's F2 system introduced in the 1970s. The F2A variant pairs the F2 body with the DP-11 metering prism, which uses AI (Automatic Indexing) coupling for compatible lenses.

Sales data for the F2A Photomic is thin: a single recorded UK auction hammer result sits at £130, so this figure is what the camera sold for at saleroom level rather than a retail asking price. With only one data point, today's market value is best treated as indicative, and condition of the body, prism electronics, and shutter accuracy will swing what a clean example is worth.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Nikon F2A Photomic sell for at auction?
