History and Presentation of the Nikon EM
The Nikon EM, a device with a captivating design, embodies a strategic turning point for Nikon. When it was released in 1979, it aimed to make Nikon quality more accessible while preserving the brand's manufacturing excellence.
Technical characteristics
-
Exceptional Design : Renowned for its exceptional design, the EM combines functionality and elegance. Its design was entrusted to a designer from Ferrari, which makes it a real aesthetic gem.
-
Economic Accessibility : To ensure financial accessibility, Nikon created a new range of lenses, the E lenses. Three E lenses were available at launch: a 50mm f/1.8, a 35mm f/2.5, and a 100mm f/2.8. These optics were mounted on a polycarbonate AI mount.
-
Reasonable Compromises : To maintain a competitive price, some features found on high-end models have been omitted. For example, there is no exposure lock or depth of field test.
-
Photographic Performance : Despite its more affordable positioning, the EM does not compromise on photographic performance. It offers automation with a prior choice of aperture, and the speeds chosen by the exposure meter are clearly displayed in the viewfinder.
-
Intuitive Use : The EM has a shutter with a range of 1/1000 to 1 second. The cell turns on by pressing the shutter button halfway, thus saving battery power.
The Nikon EM is a camera that marked a significant transition in the world of photography. It allowed more enthusiasts to benefit from Nikon quality without sacrificing performance. Its attractive design makes it a prized collector's item for design and photography enthusiasts.

Why shoot film in 2024 ?
That's true.. Why would you want to shoot film in 2024 in the digital age?
Film photography offers a unique and timeless aesthetic that digital cannot replicate. Film grain, colors, and contrasts create a depth and texture that is unique to film photography.
Film photography allows you to physically hold your photos and negatives, providing a more tactile and memorable experience. Each photo becomes a unique object that you can keep and cherish.
Shooting on film encourages you to think and plan each shot carefully. This develops your photography skills and teaches you to be more attentive to detail.
Using a film camera connects you to a long tradition of photography. You are using a technology that has captured historic moments and has been practiced by generations of photographers before you.
With film, you focus on the moment without being distracted by the screen and digital settings. This allows you to better appreciate and capture the essence of each moment.
