Don't worry, I have a brandnew Nikon F65. I sell if for half price and nobody want's that. An argentic camera, even the moste recent is old junk that noone wants anymore. Canon has decided to stop producing argentic cameras as off 2006 anyway. Only Nikon will produce new modells in the high end class.

Wow.. the detail and clarity on this is amazing. Reminds me I need a little hoodie thing for my camera.

I cant get rid of my AE-1 either even tho'I use Nikon gear now . I have had it for 22 years and it has seen better days but it was my first SLR and I will probably take it to my grave!

Sacrilege! This picture is really too good to show something this sad,
I'm still hanging on to my AE-1, it'll get an honorary place when it turns 25.
I'm happy you protected it from scratches with crumpled newspaper.
