Subject: RE: Tech: Help about Nikon camera Equipment
Cameras that are both digital and true SLRs (single-lens reflex) are top-of-the-line contemporary professional tools, and no brand is more highly respected than Nikon. What you have there is not digital, but it is a Nikon SLR.
I think this means that your many lenses and filters are likely to be usable with newer Nikon digital SLR cameras, and therefore may be more valuable today than the FA camera body.
If you do find it best to sell the lenses individually, keep one lens (a 50mm "normal," a 35mm moderate-wide-angle, or a 35-85/35-100 zoom) with the body to make it more salable. An expensive non-digital SLR camera has a limited enough sales appeal even with a lens -- without any lens at all, your potential buyers will be limited to a small number of collectors and other eccentrics.
Of course, the easiest thing for you as a seller would be to find a buyer (at the right price, of course) for the entire collection. Might try that first.
