USNRET Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I have a Canon A-1 with FD 50mm 1:1.8 and FD 35-105 1:3.5 lenses bought in Japan in the '80s that has taken maybe less than 100 pics. I also have a Nikon D50 body. I have submitted those for a trade in value towards a Nikon D5600 body as I have a relatively new lens for the Nikon. The Nikon has had auto focus issues since we moved and a lens replacement (it was damaged and mover's insurance covered a new one) did not fix that. Auto focus works or doesn't depending on zoom / settings. What is your guess on trade-in value on the two cameras and lenses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Probably not much dude, maybe a couple hundred for all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjimbo Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Many moons ago, I had the exact same Canon setup. At the time, the A-1 was badass.....Seems you'd be better off outright selling rather than trading in.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
