I just received a Nikon N80 35mm camera body with two kit lenses (28-80 & 70-300). I am not really interested in going back to film.

Does anyone have a good suggestion as to where I might be able to donate these items?

I thought about ebay - but that was pretty boring. I'd rather donate the kit to a worthy beneficiary.

Any suggestions?

Nice thought! The glass will work with most all of the Nikon dSLR's. Very cool!

I'm sure your local school would appriciate it to lend out to students and help them learn photography.

My kids' school is 100% digital. I guess I could call around to see who still deals with film.

Thanks for the idea.

Try a college :)

There are many worthy kids there who would like the chance at a 35mm camera...

you might just help out the world's next great photog :)

Both lenses should work with any Nikon DSLR. Good of you to donate them to a good cause. ( An exception being the new D40, which does not have a focusing motor in the body.)

You can try the junior college, they most likely have darkrooms and film classes and would get some use for sure. Our school received several donations while I was taking classes of all kinds of equipment. Kudos for donating.

Hi Jeff,
I just sent you an email regarding the lenses.
Thanks for looking into it.
