[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 384323, member: 13599"] sorry to rain on your vision - but - it is what it is. The digital age has really squashed the film market. I started using the Canon "A" (AE/A1) series back in 1970 for weddings, portraits, nature, etc. Mostly in the Florida Keys, Outer Banks, NC, Italy, Venice, and Virginia. The salt air really sucks the life right of them. Between 1970 and 1990 I probably went through a dozen bodies. I keep looking for a nice complete set of the 4x5 Speed Graphic press camera kit and a nice Hasselblad 500 (the model that Niel Armstrong used on his moon walk). They both are holding somewhat of a solid value. But when the camera shop (art studio actually) offered me $50 for my box full of Canon stuff - I was floored. Then, did my homework and found that to be the average market price for what I had. Thus, I passed it on to my daughter and her son. Which still sits in her closet in a box for the past 10 years. good luck Johnny [/QUOTE]
