All,
I'm hoping to get some help on some cameras and lenses I have inherited. As part of cleaning out my parents' house, I'm now the proud owner of two boxes of camera equipment that I know absolutely nothing about. I can say that everything looks clean (no mold, no rotting rubber, no cracked mirrors), and that the shutters open and close. However, I have no idea if the speeds are correct, and I have no idea when they were last cleaned or serviced. To the best of my knowledge, they've been sitting in boxes for the last 25 years.
I've tried researching on Ebay, but I have no idea if I'm looking at the right things. I've tried posting on facebook and craigslist, and I've gotten offers ranging from $5 to $500. Here is what I have:
