Old Film Gear Opinion

[redsnapper]

A friend of mine has asked me to look at his old camera gear and sell it if it's worth anything.
Here's a list, it would be interesting to hear your views on it.
Old leather attache style camera case 40x26cm
Praktica L2
Praktica PL Nova 1 FX
Lens Rexagon dia 55mm Auto MC 35mm f2.8
Lens Makinon 200mm f3.3?
Lens Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f2.8
Number of screw in filters & hoods
Leningrad4 light meter

probably not worth much but looks cool in it's old 60's style case.

Joe,

I don't thinks that anything there is going to make him wealthy....looks like about £80-100 worth at best.

I have the exact same lightmeter here....must have bought it in the early 70's before I progressed to a body with a built in one.

I agree, but I must admit, I have a "thing" for Prakticas. I used a 40 year old one for my A-levels, never broke, or anything, wheras my friends new eos's and nikons needed repairs once or twice a year!

There a professional photographer lives next door to my Auntie he has promised me a pick from his collection, and my cousin says it stretches from from one side of the Attic to the other.:)
