INTRODUCTIONThe Nikkorex 35 II is a leaf shutter SLR camera. It was made in Japan by Nippon Kogaku (Nikon), it replaced the first version of the Nikkorex in 1962. BEST SUITED FOR:
PERSONAL NOTESNikon first made rangefinder cameras, then it introduced its first SLR, the famous Nikon F. The Nikkorex is a weird mix between these two worlds. It looks like someone mounted a crappy rangefinder lens on a bulky and oversized SLR body. Its solid, but heavy, yet fragile. CONCLUSIONI see absolutely no reason why someone should have used a camera like this in 1962, even less today. PHOTO SAMPLESVERDICT:
