Nikon N50 with AF NIKKOR 35-80mm f/4-5.6 D lens

This Nikon N50 35mm SLR comes paired with a short zoom that will take you from wide (35mm) to a portrait-appropriate telephoto (80mm).

Like other late 80s/early 90s plastic-bodied SLRs of its type, its plastic construction belies its capabilities.

This camera will give you the manual, aperture priority, shutter priority, and program exposure modes which were developed throughout earlier decades; it also delivers multiple metering modes which are, as a rule, substantially more sophisticated than what some of those earlier stylish chrome bodies can offer.

The Nikon N50 also has what it calls "Simple" mode, accessed through the "Simple/Advanced" dial.  This was Nikon's attempt to provide an easier experience more similar to shooting with a point-and-shoot in an SLR; they abandoned it on later models in this family.  "Simple" mode lets you access "General Purpose," "Landscape," "Portrait," and "Close Up," which were all types of automatic modes consumers were familiar with from the point-and-shoot world.  "Advanced" houses the standard Program, Aperture-Priority, Shutter-Priority, and Manual modes.

Like other Nikon SLRs of its era, it is compatible with a long span of legacy Nikon lenses, including Nikon AF lenses and earlier, manual-focus lenses such as Nikon AI-S lenses.  Always check the specific comparability of a body and lens you wish to pair together.

This camera uses a 2CR5 battery, not included.  Don't forget to put one in your cart!
