Just moving to another camera.

I can see why you want a different camera.

The nikon fm3a is a great camera. It's small and light. The hybrid shutter is awesome feature. I have shot with Leica's for so long time, I wanted to mix it up a little and try a slr. Started with a f4, then this fm3a, next is a f6. I very much like mechanical cameras so I may go back to fm3a after it's all said and done.

Cool camera and sweet shots!
Unless you want AF and 1/8000, the F6 will not give you anything more. (I have one)

Totally true. A simple light tight box with decent glass is all I have ever needed.

I just got back from a short trip where I shot four rolls with an FM3a. Shooting in aperture priority is easy, and the DX option for film is great – open, load, and go. GLWS.

It's out of my budget, I guess I will end up buying a FM2, but it really looks great! Good luck with the sale

Totally true. A simple light tight box with decent glass is all I have ever needed.

I think I would go the other way.
Try an F2SB or F2AS, or to get a little spendy- an F2 titan. F3's are great too, I just prefer the "2".

Be cool, shoot hybrid.

Also, willing to sell camera w/o grip for $420!
