Loading Nikon FG For The First Time

The Nikon FG was my first film SLR. I bought it used, but it works great! Here is my first attempt at loading film in it. No audio, sorry!

Is there anywhere where i can view the pictures you take with this camera like a flickr or something? as i have the same and am really interested in seeing your results.

@Knoxville1300 I haven't gotten around posting any pictures from it on Flickr, but once I do, I'll put a link on the video description.

[JoeLeandSant]

@isailg There is a compartment for the battery on the bottom. Hay un compartimento para la batería en la parte inferior. (No hablo espanol..)

thank you SO much for posting this! i just got my Nikon FG and I couldn't figure out how to open it to save my life. I toyed around with every possible combination of buttons before i had to look up a video. you are awesome...

[JoeLeandSant]

@iallisonjuliette I don't know why your FG may not open, but pulling up the film rewind knob is the only way I know of opening it. There are manuals for this camera online and countless 35mm camera loading tutorials here on YouTube. I might do a tutorial in the future, but in the meantime, you can look at other video tutorials.
