What is a fair price for a used camera and lenses? |
A friend is offering me a Cannon A-1 35mm camera(about 20 years old)+ several lenses. These include a macro zoom lens and a wide angle lens, as well as a 28-50mm zoom lens and a few others that are just basic lenses. All together about 7 lenses. Also an auto winder attachment, a couple of cable releases, about 12 filters, several lens adapters, a light meter and a bellows. I need to figure out what to offer her, but I don't know what is a fair price. I don't want to cheat either one of us. Does anybody have any idea what would be a fair price to offer for these items. I must have the camera and at least a couple of lenses, along with the cable releases, and at least a couple of filters. So an idea of what to offer for the smaller number of items would also be helpful. Thank you. Since Canon developed the EOS camera system, the A-1 vintage cameras became obsolete ... sort of. While they are still great cameras and can shoot amazing images. What you will not get is auto-focus and the ability to use the new Canon EOS and DSLR's cameras. I think $75 - $100 for the camera body. I would look at an on line store that deals in used equipment like KEH (See link below). They have a rating system for quality and tell you what they can guarantee (if anything) for various conditions. |
