I'm toying vaguely with the idea of selling my Nikon film gear. It's much loved and I'll be sad to part with it but I must move with the times and the world has - for good or bad - gone digital.

Would somebody give me an idea of the prices I could expect for the following gear (it's currently in the UK although i'm in the US at the moment):

2x Nikon FM - both well used, some brassing and a ding or two. Both work just fine.
2x MD12 - well used but both working just fine.

28mm Tamron AD2
35mm Nikon AIS
50mm f1.8 Nikon AIS
85mm Nikon AIS
135mm Tamron AD2 - slight fungus but it doesn't affect IQ as it's out of the frame. Sharp lens - very sharp.
200mm f4 Nikon AIS
300mm Tamron AD2
2x TC (Jessops)
3 Tubes (Jessops)

Metz 45 CT1 + spare battery holder.

Big Fotima camera bag (192 HT) to hold it all.
Small no-name camera bag that'll hold 1 body and 4 lenses.

Cokin filters (a series) with all the 80, 81 and 82 series filters plus some effetcs filters, hoods, couplers etc - all in good condition.

52mm red, green, yellow, orange, starburst, polariser

All lenses come with UV or skylight filters - some multicoated, some not.

I'm just looking for an indication of what I might receive for them for a private sale. Not yet sure whether I'll sell or keep them as future antiques.

I might also sell a Meopta Axomat colour enlarger (it hs the colour 3 head) and a colour analyser. All comes with a timer and a transformer. Also an ilford multigrade meter.

The sad thing about the digital revolution is the effect it has had on film gear prices. I'm holding on to mine hoping for a nostalgia movement. LOL. Seriously though an ebay search will tell you what your gear is worth in todays market.

You do know that you can use that glass on your Canon with a Nikkor to Canon Eos adapter, right? You'd have to to focus and set aperture manually though.

Worth a punt on Fred Miranda.
