![]() Nikon Guide Serial Numbers By YearIs there a web or other source for serial numbers by year for the Nikkormat models I am interested in dating my FTn but Im sure others have different models as well.Thanks Andrew nikonnl 323 nikonnl 323 Mar 13, 2007 2 2007-03-13T19:20 Hello, I can help you with the following info concerning mechanical cameras.Nikkormat FT, July 1965-August 1967. ![]() All versions are in Nikkormat Nikomat and all (except FS) are in black and chrome. I dont have the last serial numbers yet, so I am not able to give you total production numbers. Regards, Nico Mar 15, 2007 3 2007-03-15T07:56 As far as I can dig into my archive the production data of the FT is a little bit more than 100,000 caemras, the FS (without exposuremeter) was sold for a longer period but did sell well as the FT (with exposuremeter) wasnt that expensive. The FTN was the best selling Nmat ever with a production of over 800,000 cameras (some publicists even say over 1 million). The FT2 was a modified FTN (hot shoe MX-flash sync.) and made around 300,000 bodies. The FT3 is rarer as it entered the market at the same time as the Nikon FM. Nikkormat and Nikomat are identical, its just the name change for certain markets. All cameras are strong bodies, in those days relatively expensive (in comparison to other brands) but very sturdy.

If the FTN serial numbers started with 3500001, then this would be the 851,428th FTN manufactured. ![]() Would anyone have a manufacturing date for this camera thanks Share this topic with.
