Ok so I just want to say that I am in no rush here and I'm still trying to decide if what I'm doing is even a good idea. Probably not but that's ok! Ever since I acquired my F I find that it's what accompanies me when I want to shoot with a manual 35mm SLR. Those that know me know that I have a problem with having too much gear, I hate redundancy and I only have backups of my "digital" gear. Anyways, I find myself with a decision to make, and I think this is the direction I should go in.

With that said, here's what I've got:

An extremely clean FM2n body (titanium shutter) in beautiful black with hardly a mark on it. I recently resealed it and it works just absolutely beautifully. Perfect exposures every time and the meter works great. Also includes a not as clean but perfectly functioning MD-12 motor drive. (Thinking $200 here)
An AI 50mm f/1.4 in wonderful cosmetic shape and no issues with caps and the hood. (Thinking about $120)
and an AI-S 35mm f/2 in very nice cosmetic condition and clean glass, however it has a slight wobble, I couldn't figure out what it was, but the film results from the lens show that there is no problem at all functionality-wise. (Thinking $120)

Naturally if I'm going to do this I would like to just sell it all in one swoop, I'm thinking that about $400 for the kit would be about right, but let me know your thoughts!

Again I'm definitely not in a hurry to unload these things, but I was just thinking about it because I honestly question how much these things are going to get used based on my schedule.

Let me know your thoughts, I'll have pictures available soon.

I have the images from the guy I got the camera from originally and it's still in the same condition. This is the lens that's included as well, I'll take photos of everything when I am back at home.

The 50mm was sold, everything else is available. $300 for the lot!
 
Beautiful camera..

35mm sold -

FM2n with the MD-12 available, how about $180.
 
Ok so the person that bought the 50mm decided to un-buy the 50mm so I have that back in my hands. It works fine (I've got plenty of film results to prove that), but they said the focus felt dry to them. I have not noticed this personally but I just want to describe the situation.

I'd sell the bundle for $225 shipped.
 
Ok the FM2n has been sold, but I do still have the 50mm f/1.4

If you're interested, I'm open to offers.
 
This is going to sound stupid but I kind of wish I didn't sell the 35mm lens I had. I got hasty I suppose; if you have a non-AI 35 f/2 Nikkor-O and you'd trade for an AI 50mm f/1.4 let me know. User condition is fine.

I just nailed down a 35/1.4 Nikkor-N and might be convinced to sell my non-AI 35 f/2 Nikkor-O. It's in fairly beater condition so I would not expect much. Not interested in a trade as I've got a 50/1.4 already...PM me if you want to chat about it....
