I "have to" sell this little historical masterpiece dated 1950, how much could it cost?
It is a Bencini Comet S, 127 film.
How much would you pay for it? Is 400$ too much for it?

It's a comet, not a robot, 127 isn't made any more so it's ornamental, it's worth about $30 to a hipster.

I does. I hoped to push more, sincerely. I wanted to buy a reflex but I'm broke.

How do you know it works if you can't get film for it.

You have old unusable trash.

If you want to buy things, just put money aside from your job, even if you're on minimum wage it shouldn't take longer than 3 months to save $1000. Eat rice, don't go out, don't buy anything that's not a necessity.

You're a noob, you'd be much better off with a sony with an evf than a dslr.

it was crap in 1950 and it's crappier now. just because something is old doesn't make it valuable. you can still get 127 film but frankly a pinhole camera would produce a better pic thsn this bit of italian shit.

Someone dropped their camera in the ocean, and then whined like a little bitch.

If it was a failed design, surely there would be more than one or two examples considering the A7 range are the fastest selling FF cameras ever made.

http://docs.esupport.sony.com/dvimag/ILCE-7_ILCE-7R_guide/en/contents/TP0000226731.html?search=moisture Note that the marketing specifications only claim "moisture protection" on the grip now. https://docs.sony.com/release//specs/ILCE7RB_mksp.pdf

At first Sony marketed it as waterproof and weatherproof, as did the initial reviewers, and now the only mention you can find of anything like that on Sony's website is "dust and moisture protection" on the marketing specifications in regard to the grip. "moisture protection", unlike the term waterproof, isn't defined by ISO as far as I can tell and means nothing more than the back of it has a solid surface that vapor can't directly penetrate.

So don't breathe on your camera out in the cold and don't live in London.
