HCIdiver Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Looking for some help please. I have upgraded and want to pass on my old gear - but I dont want to sell it too cheap (or rob my friend either). Is there a formula or fair way to calculate our old gear? It does seem to hold value - but its also only going to age sitting on the shelf... Gear I want to sell is for Nauticam A7Rii, well used, but in good working order. - Housing - with vacuum valve - 18809 180 degree dome (could reuse it but i think I will let it go) - 37303 N100 to N120 35.5mm port adapter - extension ring Lens I have optionally is the Sony 16-35 f/2.8 - i can get 780stg from MPB for that (they charge almost 1200stg for 2nd hand excellent) Thanks in advance!

Davide DB Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 1 million dollar question 🙂 13 hours ago, HCIdiver said: t does seem to hold value - but its also only going to age sitting on the shelf... This is the crux of the matter and I am sure that each member has his or her own view. Now everyone is attracted to the A7R5 and A1 but I'm sure an A7R2 is a great camera that can give anyone satisfaction. I usually start at 50% of the price I paid for it and then adjust according to the need/want to clear the shelf at home 🙂 how much it is in demand on the market and of course its state of preservation. I often buy things used. I'm not obsessed with having new items. I also find it ethical. So when I sell I also put myself in the buyer's shoes. Many times the seller does not realise that if the savings are small, people prefer to buy the item new. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimG Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 It’s a really good question. My experience with camera/housing for D100/D200/D300 and D800 has been about 30% if I’m lucky of purchase price aer about 3 years if the system was perhaps not more than 2 generations. That said, I’ve just sold a whole bunch of Nikon lenses and a D5. The lenses ranged from 30% to 80% (the latter for a 300mmFR and a 24mmPC). I’d be embarrassed to say how much I got for a Nikon D5 in pristine condition. I was genuinely horrified. I think I’d be almost suggesting get rid of non-mirrorless fast! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
