Canon AE-1 and Canon FT-QL with 9 lens. I ran a short roll of film through both cameras and got excellent results. Both cameras functioned as they should. Light meters work, not sure if they are perfectly right on but the negatives look very good. New light seals are needed. Both cameras have been well took care of. A gentleman inherited these plus another camera and wanted to sell all of them together. I wanted the other camera so I had to buy all to get the one I wanted. I need to sell these 2 before I become attached to them There's a manual for the AE-1, 3 lens have cases.

Canon- FL 135mm 1:2.5 - some dust- focus and aperture fine
Canon- FL 135mm 1:2.5 - glass very nice- focus and aperture fine
Canon- FL 55mm 1:1.2- glass very nice- focus and aperture fine
Canon- FL 35mm 1:2.5-Rear glass has layer of gunk, was stored with no rear cap in a case and the lining of case deposited on rear lens. I did not try From what I could tell the front glass looks fine.
Canon- FL 50mm 1:1.4- very nice glass- focus and aperture fine
Focal zoom- 80-200mm 1:4.5 glass dust and light haze
Vivitar zoom-28-70mm 1:3.5-4.8 MC Macrofocusing nice glass
Canon- FD 35mm 1:1.2 very nice glass- focus and aperture fine
Canon- FD 50mm 1:1.8 very nice glass- focus and aperture fine

I'm asking $250 plus shipping. A large flat rate box is to small. There's almost 15 pounds of gear here. Shipping will probably be in the $20-$30 range.

Two of the lenses are worth that price individually, you're giving it away! I respect that but please make sure it goes to a poor student and not a wealthy collector if you want to give it away!

Thank you for waking me up Mr. Grain Elevator. I goofed on the price. I wanted the $250 to begin with. Wish I knew of a student who really wanted this outfit .

Even $250 still basically conforms to grain elevator’s post. Great of you to put all this up for that price! (And I second making sure this goes to someone who’ll use it.)
