The ultimate Nikonos V underwater camera, 50m waterproof with TTL flash and auto exposure for diving photography.
The Nikon Nikonos V is the final and most advanced model in the legendary Nikonos underwater camera line from 1984, featuring TTL flash metering and aperture-priority auto exposure. The Nikonos V represents the pinnacle of purpose-built underwater film camera design with the most comprehensive feature set.
The TTL flash metering enables automatic underwater flash exposure — critical capability given the difficulty of manual flash calculation underwater. The aperture-priority auto provides exposure convenience, and the camera is waterproof to 50 metres for serious recreational and professional diving photography.
Build quality is the most refined in the Nikonos line with improved seals, more reliable electronics, and the interchangeable Nikkor underwater lens system. The camera accepts dedicated wide-angle and close-up lenses designed specifically for underwater use.
The Nikonos V commands the strongest prices of any Nikonos model on the used market as the most capable and feature-rich underwater film camera ever produced. The TTL flash, auto exposure, and 50m depth rating provide professional underwater capability that remains unmatched by any other film camera.
