What it is
{"overview":"The Nikon MD-4 is a motor drive accessory that attaches to the base of a Nikon 35mm SLR body to provide automated film advance and rewind. Completeness — battery tray, body-side coupling, and original markings — is the main factor that moves the price an MD-4 sells for.","buying_guide":"Open the battery compartment and inspect the contacts for corrosion or salt residue, as leaked cells are the most common failure point on motor drives of this vintage. Test the coupling to the camera base, listen for smooth gear engagement in both single-frame and continuous modes, and confirm that powered rewind operates without slipping.
