Nikon classic - F2 Photomic with 85mm f1.8 non-AI lens
Nikon F2 professional level systems camera body was introduced in 1971. "Photomic" refers to the metering viewfinder head which this example is shown with. The Nikkor 85mm lens, perfect length for portraits, is in the old Nikon lens mount, the non-AI mount. While this means it cannot be mounted without damaging almost all more recent Nikon bodies (the FM is one exception that permits non-AI as well as AI mount lenses) it has superb quality and can be bought used for a very reasonable price.
