Hello,
My wife and I were going through some of her father's old things and came across his old Nikon camera. After doing some research, we found it that it is a pretty rare and collectible camera (based on serial number). Neither of us really has use for a vintage camera, so we were looking to see what its value may be and where would be a good place to sell it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Camera Body:
-Nikon F SLR, chrome top and bottom plates with black everywhere else.
-"Made in Japan" on bottom plate, with "Nippon Kogaku Tokyo" on the top plate.
-Serial #6602520, with a red dot before the numbers (the so called "red dot" cameras)
-Standard Non-Metered Eye Level Finder, with "Nikon F Japan" on the underside.
Lens:
-Nippon Kogaku Japan No. 415325
-NIKKOR-S Auto1:1.4 f=50mm
Accessories
-Original(?) brown leather carrying case.
All in all in is in great condition, with very little wear or scratches. Some dust, but not much. All the levers and dials work, but since I'm not a camera guy, I can't say whether they all work or not.
