Nikon MD-15 (Used)

 The MD-15 was introduced in 1983/4 and was discontinued around the same time. The FA was discontinued in 1989. The MD-15 served a dual functions when used in combination with the FA. This motor drive was produced exclusively for the Nikon FA – it is a dedicated unit and it cannot be shared with other Nikon body. Firstly, it is an automatic film advance device. Next, this is the second and last detachable motor drive designed by Nikon that can power the camera operations – even without battery(ies) inside your camera body. When you attached the MD15 onto the FA, the camera body’s batteries are automatically turned off and MD-15’s will take over the power supply for the camera. The shutter release button on the motor drive acts and behaves the same way as the camera’s, slightly depress will automatically activates the meter and off after 16 seconds when in a state of inactivity.
