The FM3A offers aperture-priority autoexposure and through-the-lens flash exposure control. Film speed can be set via the DX codes on the film canisters. That's pretty much it for automation. Controls are a very traditional "two-dial" classic manual camera setup. You turn the lens aperture ring (Dial 1) to adjust aperture. You turn the shutter speed dial (Dial 2) on the top deck to adjust shutter speed. You turn the lens focus ring to focus (this doesn't rate a dial number in the autofocus world). Minimize

Pros: Tough as nails, ergonomic design, advanced features (for a manual SLR) but no nonsense features.
Cons: Noisy shutter / mirror slap.
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended - a very reliable and well-designed camera that can really work for just about any photographer.

Pros: Well built, fully mechanical with just enough automatic features.
Cons: None so far
The Bottom Line: Get this camera if you can afford the price and want a camera with fully manual controls
