Canon T70

[creese]

I'm having a mass clear out and found my 1980s Canon T70 with spare lens. Anyone have any idea how much it might be worth?

Depending on condition, and what lens it is, I'd say anything from £30 - £80.

It works in that when I put batteries in the programs work. It probably could do with a clean. It has a Canon 50mm and a Tokina 28mm lens.

Yeah, I'd go with around £50 then, if you sell on ebay that is. If you take it into a shop, they'll probably give you £20 for it, tops.

I sold a FTb, a t50, a 100mm, 300mm lens, 28mm lens, a 50mm lens, and a 35mm - 200mm lens, camera bag, case, a set of filters and a few other bits about 6 years ago and got about £250 for the lot.

The market in manual 35mm cameras is quite saturated, so the prices are low.

My daughter is doing a car boot the weekend so wanted an idea what she should ask. I'll start there, after all, after 30 years it's all money in the pocket.

Absolutely. The T50 was a brilliant little camera, capable of making some fantastic shots - I used to take a lot of shots of wild orchids with my kit, and the fully manual nature makes them very good for some artistic shots.

After a lot of years forgetting all I learned about photography I'm trying to pick it up again but digital this time around.
