My dad is bringing some lenses from India and I was wondering you can give some rough price estimates for the following lenses.

Nikon 300mm F4 ED AF (I think)
Nikon 105 F4 macro (manual focus)
Nikon 50mm F1.2 (manual focus)

thanks a lot

The 300mm might be the AF-S F4 ED. I paid about £800 new I think when I first owned one.
 
Not enough information I'm afraid, Sid.

This amazing resouce lists every SLR lens Nikon have ever made. It shows:
  • 2 versions of the 300mm f/4 (AF and AF-S), manufactured since 1987
  • 6 versions of the 105mm f/4 macro, manufactured from 1970 to 1983
  • 4 variants of the 50mm f/1.2, manufactured since 1978
You'll need to get more detailed information. If your dad could tell you the serial numbers then you should be able to use that chart to look them up.

Not very helpful though, as that's for new lenses only. At least one and possibly all 3 of the lenses being discussed here are no longer in production.

I'd suggest looking at the usual places - eBay and second hand shops - to get a feel for the going rate. Or you could ring a second-hand Nikon specialist such as Grays of Westminster and ask them. But they'll want to know what condition the lenses are in before they could estimate the value.
