Yes
A kind person donated these old cameras/bits to our cat rescue and i thought i'd see if you fine people could advise me on if they are worth anything or what would be the best way to sell them if so.

Not tested any of them, these are just photos from today, when i recieved them. Does anyone have any thoughts if it's worth pursuing? Or if you want to know more about any of them

Hi...well IMO there is nothing worth selling unless some collector specifically wanted those items...you see this sort of stuff at the bootie and nobody buys them.
 
The Fujica Drive is a funky clockwork half-frame camera, eBay suggests £20+ but that's the only one that catches my eye - and to sell at that price it would need to be working, no busted spring on the clockwork mechanism and the meter working.

Definitely worth a roll of film and development costs to test the Fujica ;)
 
The lens hood might have a bit of value, as in a tenner or so, depending on size of mount.
 
I recently sold a working Fujica Drive for £20.

would a photoprocesser need a special machine to be able to do it? presumably it would be normal film processing but machine possibly not able to get prints/scan to CD?

The scans might end up weird and need some additional pp but if its just to test then a standard minilab would be fine.
 
hhmm right, might test that one out then and ditch the rest to a charity shop
 
Bummer, just went to load film and spool is broken. this happened to my canon a1, so im guessing its not going to worth anything because this will mean the film wont wind on?
