+ leather casing for it

Minolta 50mm f1.4

Soligar 35-70mm f/2.5-3.5

Albinar *:rolleyes * 28mm f/2.8 macro

    No idea but i dont think i could get $100 for my 23 year old AE-1 so heres what you do...google 'pin hole' photography & convert it to a pinholer.

    All you need is a lens cap with a .03mm hole in it or there abouts stuck over it & some B&W film. The paper & developers will cost you about $20.

    Its great fun watching what comes out.

    Well........
    Unfortunately 35mm MF stuff unless it's real high end don't go for squat these days.

    They will be more of a collector piece than a useable item VERY shortly.

    I bet if I still had my Canon A-1 (which was 2nd to top of the line at the time) with my Tamron 60-300mm.....Would only fetch about $100-$200 today at the highest.
    Back then I paid $400 for the lens alone!!bncry.gif

    I think you are looking at $50-$100 for everything. For that, you might want to keep it?

    I traded in my Nikon 8008s, Nikor 35-70 f3.3-4.5, no-name 28mm, no-name 105mm and the SB-26 for $200. The body cost me $700 new, the flash was $350.

    My old 35 stuff not worth much old Pentax gear

    You might want to keep that 50mm for macro work its looks fast enough
    You can get a cheap reversing ring and attach it to another 50mm for some cool macro
