Canon 35mm camera + lenses/filters

My Dad (Clint) is looking to sell his Canon AE-1 35mm camera with a standard 50 mm lens PLUS the following:

**Wide Angle 25mm lens (Canon)
**Telephoto 150mm lens (Vivitar)
**2X Converter
**Automatic rewind
**Flash Attachment (Canon)
**2 Skylight Filters (one for each lens)
**1 Polarizing Filter
**Lens Brush
**Camera Bag

The main battery compartment door is broken but a little duct tape works well.

My Dad doesn't use the camera anymore. I'm not setting a price so please PM me if interested with a B/O

Mr. Green

Hey good luck! Let me know if you have any success. I tried giving away my old camera stuff once and had it all given back to me....LOL.

I might be interested in that polarizing filter...52mm?

I've got a bag full of Olympus gear that was state of the art for about 20 minutes in the early 1980's. I think the "value" has disappeared for this stuff.

My bags of old 35mm camera stuff are all olympus items as well.

A few months ago I attended a gallery showing for a photographer that has some really unique signature stuff. He explained that he had taken apart a lens and turned around some of the glass and changed the order of the internal optics for this particular lens and reassembled it. Suppose there would be any value in pulling apart a lens and trying to come up with something funky?
