General Comments
I bought my Nikon FG20 35mm SLR camera in 1993 with my high school graduation loot, when it was already 11 years old. It has served me well all this time and I wouldn't trade it for the world. It's durabilty has survived falling off rocks hiking in the mountains (I broke 3 fingers), hell once I fell off an ocean jetty (yes I stuck the camera in the air so it wouldn't get wet). I often take my FG20 with me to get shots that I couldn't otherwise get with my Mamiya Pro TL.
On average, people found this review very helpful
