I have come across a mint Nikon F5 with 50mm AFD f1.4 here in Darwin for AUS$595, about US$460.

Unfortunately, I only want the 50mm, but the guy will not separte.

What is a mint F5 body worth to resell?

    I agree with Jim. That is a good deal. If you can find a buyer, you should have no problems finding that F5 a good home.

    HERE's a current listing you can watch on that "auction" site...
    And HERE's the listing of what's sold there...

    BTW, I'm also seeing $400-500... Sounds like a sweeet deal!

    I will probably go for it and maybe keep the F5 as well.

    I do miss shooting with Fujicrome 50 Velvia and I will have true 17mm on my 17-35 AFS.
