p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Need help pricing some film gear


Hello, hoping some of you can help me figure out how much all of this gear is worth.

My friend's father suddenly passed away recently and the family thought I'd get some use out of it rather than trash it. Problem is I'm a Nikon shooter. I've also dabbled with film before but I just don't find it to be in my tastes so I'd rather sell it all off.

As far as I know the gear is all working as his father had used it just a few weeks ago and it looks in pretty good condition. I know the lenses are all FD so they won't work on current Canon bodies.

The gear is as follows:

Canon AE-1 Program w/ Case/Strap/Manual/Body Cap
Canon 50mm f/1.4 x2 - (Not sure why he had 2)
Vivitar Series 1 - 35-85mm f/2.8 w/ Manual
Vivitar Series 1 - 70-210 f/3.5 (Says it's a macro) w/ Tamron Case/Manual
EVA Blitz Flash ?? w/ Case/Power Cord/Manual
8 Unopened Rolls of Kodak Max 400
Misc filters

Please excuse the cruddy pictures I quickly took them in a park nearby:

You may be able to get something for the Canon lens. In my opinion, check with a local HS to see if they can use any old film equipment..

A quick check on ebay says:
$50-80 for camera
$50-80 for 50f1.4 lens
$150-200 for 35-80
$100-150 for 70-210

Back in day that was some serious gear. His father must have been an avid photographer. Are you sure your friend won't want to keep it for sentimental reasons?

I of course asked but not to get too much into their private business, they weren't close.

Thanks for those prices, I don't intend to make a fortune off this gear, hoping for a quick sale.
