Canon first SLR

[Chan Tran]

I have the Canonflex the first version. It's in very good condition. Is it worth anything?

 

[Les Sarile]

Another camera that isn't too common. It most certainly is worth something depending on condition/functionality/kit and the interested party.

 

[Sirius Glass]

The question is not what it is worth because we are not dealing with commodities, but what is its operating condition and what is worth to you?

Well said.

Functional and cosmetic I would say very good. It isn't worth very much to me as I don't like Canon.

It's your loss, really; the Canonflex is a very well built and nicely finished camera, and the R 85mm and 100/2 lenses for it are absolute jewels. I have the 135/2.5, another great one. The R 35/2.5 is same design as the FL 35/2.5 which is well liked.

That's why I asked if it's worth something to others. I know to me it isn't worth much.

If it's on great shape it should be worth the same value as a FTb in great shape, considering the historical value.

Which is to say, "not much," considering what FTbs sell for these days. Even black ones, which are quite uncommon, don't go for more than about 50 bux on fleabay.

Wow... In my country getting a mint-shape FTbN is not cheap. Battered-shape, really cheap.

I put it on Ebay. Made a mistake to let Ebay taken away the buy it now option.

I am not trying to get any Apugers to bid on it just the link to show how the camera look. It's in really nice condition.

Good looking Canonflex. Love the bottom-wind. If I didn't already have one, I'd bid on it.
