Got an old Nikon 35mm SLR that needs fixing? Nikon Japan is bringing back its popular MF Old Product Maintenance Service

Nikon will service your old SLR film camera, but only for a limited number of people for a very limited time

Nikon Japan is offering a limited-time service to restore and maintain old Nikon SLR cameras and lenses for a select group of customers. The news comes from Digital Camera Watch and follows a trend of Nikon providing support for retro products as film photography gains popularity. However, the service is only open to residents of Japan, excluding those in the United States and Europe.

Applicants have a limited window of opportunity, from September 1 to October 30, to apply for the service. Upon receiving the items at the Nikon Repair Center in Yokohama, the center will inspect and clean eligible cameras, including the Nikon F, F2, F3, FM, FM2, FE, and FE2, as well as various classic Nikon optics. The primary aim of the service appears to be cleaning and inspecting these products rather than replacing parts.
