Used camera lenses in Regina typically sell for C$115 to C$755 (about $81 to $540). Lenses hold their value far better than the cameras they attach to, and the entire sale rests on proving the glass is clear of fungus, haze and scratches.
Selling a camera lens in Regina
Regina is the provincial capital, sitting on flat open prairie with a large artificial park and lake at its centre, and it is where the national police force trains its recruits. It is a government and agricultural city, and the horizon here is genuinely unbroken.
Government postings and police training intakes both move households on fixed schedules, producing complete and well-kept sets. Agricultural cycles supply the tools and equipment side of the market.
The city is flat and laid out on a grid, which makes driving and finding an address simple. Winter wind on open prairie is the real consideration, so agree a time when loading outdoors is bearable.
On outdoor and garden equipment, check for wind and grit damage as well as age. Open prairie means everything outdoors is sandblasted a little, and it shows in bearings and moving parts first.
Handing it over in Regina
Two practical things shape a Canadian sale. Interprovincial shipping costs can exceed the value of a mid-priced item, which is why so much trade here is collection-only. And winter genuinely interrupts handovers in much of the country, so agree a window rather than a fixed day between December and March.

What camera lenses are worth
What lifts the price
- Smooth, accurate autofocus with no hunting
- Original hood, caps and case
What pulls it down
- Wobble or play in the focus or zoom barrel
- Scratches or coating marks on the front element
Working out what yours is worth
- Shine a torch through from behind and look for threads or haze
- Check the aperture blades snap cleanly and are dry
Getting it ready
- Shine a torch through the lens from the front and look through from the back for fungus, haze or separation. Photograph what you see.
- Confirm the exact mount, since a lens that does not fit the buyer’s camera is worthless to them.
Photograph
- The lens standing upright, whole, with caps off
- The rear element and the mount contacts
Put in the description
- Focal length, maximum aperture and mount type
- Optical condition: any fungus, haze, separation, dust or scratches
Brand, focal length, aperture and mount, in that order: “Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens”. Photographers search exactly this string. The mount is critical — EF, RF, F, Z, E and MFT are not interchangeable — and omitting it wastes everybody’s time.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
