The short answer is of course it is!
We had a 500n (silver version) for a short while.
A nice lightweight and easy to use film camera, with a conveniently quiet shutter and drive mechanism.
If you do get a long lens for it (how long you thinking?), check to see whether it is chipped for , and can be used on digital bodies. Most newer lenses are (but not all). Doing this will save you replacing the lens if you want to use it with an eos digital body at a later date.
good luck
