So, I'm thinking of taking a brief exodus back to film while I save up money for a full frame DSLR.
I posted an ad on CL about trading my D5000 and possibly my 17-55 f/2.8 for a Nikon 35mm body or a 645 kit of some kind
Someone responded to the ad with a Mamiya 645 Super w/ winder, AE prism, 80mm f/2.8 and 45mm f/2.8 lenses. He didn't mention if he had film backs, but I guess I'm gonna assume he does.
Anyways, it's near impossible to find prices on all this old medium format gear, so can anyone who may have sold/bought some stuff like this give me an estimate on the value of his stuff so I don't end up with a crappy trade? |

That is a $400 - $550 or so set-up I would think. Would be fun to have. I shoot some medium format with a Bronica SQ aI and watch the auction site pretty closely. Take a look on ebay.. in general, disregard the 'buy it now' items as they usually seem high to me. Those are some rather wide lenses... The 80mm is equivalent to a 50mm in 35mm, and the 45mm is about the same as a 28mm. Mamiya makes some good stuff.

Thread with similar question
Might want to ask him what he thinks, if he doesn't wander in on his own. |
