Camera for sale (1 Viewer)

[matlock]

I've got a Minolta Dynax 404si 35mm SLR Camera for sale with a AF 35-80mm Zoom Lens and a AF 75-300mm Telephoto Lens. About four years old - in good condition (I kinda lost interest soon after I bought it). Can't for the life of me find the manual. Not too sure how much to look for, but I'll maybe start at €500 and go from there...

That's a lot of money. You can get the body for about 50 euro on ebay.

Aye. The 35-80 goes for about fifteen and the 75-300 about twenty five.

 

[matlock]

Hmm. I may have to knock a bit off it so.

you pretty much cant give away relatively modern (ie from the last 10 years) film slrs these days.

Aye, i took a pentax mz-m into a camera shop in cork there about two years ago and they offered me a tenner for it as it wasn't even autofocus. Got €415 for my F100 though with a 28mm lens on, but i suppose an F100 is an F100.

Even my EOS 100 body can be got for €60 on the old ebay, although I think I've seen them in shops in Dublin for at least twice that.

Better off putting it in the buy and sell, things tend to get a bit more there from impulsive folks who don't know the value of things.

It's not for sale and probably won't be ever, I just thought I'd see how much its worth. Squiggle has it on long term loan at the moment anyway.

I think if you want to buy a film camera, your better off getting an old all-metal, all-manual one. they hold their value much better. although of course noone is talking about buying camera here.

You'd think being finished work and heading off to find yourself soon you'd be a bit less grumpy.

I'm reporting your thread to pete for it's abusive and threatening language.

Jeez, all I wanted was to sell my camera. I never intended to cause a row

Cheers for the advice. I might just hang on to it so. Hardly seems worth selling. Much as I'd love to exploit a Buy and Sell-er, my conscience wouldn't be able to handle it.

No row, RSJ's just being smart cause he's leaving the country soon.
