I've got a Nikon FG with a Nikor 50mm lens and a telescopic 35 to 105 zoom lens. It has an autowinder as well. I hadn't really considered selling it--but when I read this I thought maybe I should. I have not used it in a couple of years--but the internal batteries are still good. I have no idea what it is worth. I know the lenses are not cheap--they are really great lenses. They are not autofocus. Let me know if you are interested and I'll find out from some photography friends what a fair market value for this stuff is. By the way, the reason I don't use it is I've gone digital--it's so much easier for me to keep track of the photos and I use them for web site work. This film camera, of course, is much much better quality than my digital (but I'm not a "photofile".
Albert probably shot more film in the last week than all of us put together shot in the last 10 years! What's worse is he made money doing it and got a bunch of great audiophile toys out of it--met some really cool musicians... oh well you get the point. At any rate--Albert might have some good advice here (but it might be kind of liking asking Gayle Sanders what's a good $150 bookshelf speaker).
