i have a couple of old cameras and wondered if they have any value
the first is the kodak 110 camera where the handle looped over from above
and the other i think is a praktika1000 but dont quote me on that
the distinctive thing with this one is it has a sort of needle i think in the view finder between 2 points on a vertical
regards / if theres any value it would have gne towards my new camera purchase

Depends on the exact models and condition. 110 film is being made again, so there is some degree of utility with the Kodaks. And if the Praktica still works it takes standard 35mm film. But I wouldn't hold my hopes very high as to the sales price from your brief descriptions.

Any lenses for the Praktica? - always a chance there's something decent stuck on the front. Although I think it usually shipped with a CZJ Tessar 50mm f/2.8. Nothing special, but still usable on most Canon, NEX or MFT digital cameras (not on Nikon though).
 
Values/ Minimal, especially the 110. There will be a few (but very few) quid in the Praktika and it will probably be worth more to you as a learning tool should you want to play with a very basic film camera.
 
I have a Voitlander Vito CL and a rollie electronic flash for it both as new as I hardly ever used them. Nobody wants film cameras any more and see that make and model in far worse condition selling for under £25 so I might as well keep it.

The Kodak 110 is a nostalgia piece for a collector. Hot and miss and entirely dependent on condition, and whether you have the original presentation box to go with it; but if its in good nick, with box, then it may actually be the more valuable, and worth.... oooh.... maybe as much as £30.... there are specific 110 collectors and specific Kodak collectors, so it possibly has more 'appeal' but still little value.

The Practika? Even when film was all there was these were low rent SLR's given to teenagers for thier main christmas presnt instead of the push-bike they really wanted or the Sinclair Spectrum thier parents couldn't afford! Twenty years ago, they fetched maybe £5 2nd hand in Jessops. They haven't apreciated much. Clean it. Stick a battery in it. Adds a roll of AGFA Vista from pundland; go use; its cheaper than a 27exp dissposeable, yet delivers 35mm full-frame lovliness. Best value you'll get from it.
