I'm looking for some cheap SLR cameras for display purposes. The cameras do not need to be functional. Any sources?

    I'd check out ebay and see if you could find a broken/water damaged camera. You could also look for old film SLR camera either on ebay or craigslist. Good luck!

    I received (3) old SLR camera bodies and lenses in the mail today from KEH. Cost $30 including s/h. The cameras are perfect for my needs. Thanks for the help!

    At one time I had a rather large collection of old cameras that I found in garage sales, second hand shops, etc. Lately, I was prowling around the antique shops located in the small town of Nanton (2500 population and a destination for shoppers out of Calgary). I could not help but look at the old cameras and noticed they were going un-wanted, as the prices were dead cheap. I suspect this is due to the fact that the younger population, growing up on digital cameras are not interested in cameras from their grandparents era. Just a thought.
