Nikon FG20

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Nikon FG-20 is a 35 mm film single-lens reflex (SLR) camera with interchangeable lenses. It was released in 1984 by Nippon Kogaku K. K. (now the Nikon Corporation) as the successor to the earlier EM and FG cameras. It is actually a downgrade from its most direct predecessor, the FG, lacking the FG's program auto and shutter-priority exposure modes. It uses the same vertical-travel metal focal-plane shutter as the FG, with electronically timed speeds from 1 to 1/1000th second as well as bulb and a mechanically-timed 1/90th second speed. The FG-20 could be considered a variant of the FG, as the only difference between the two is the omission of program and shutter-priority modes from the FG.
