What film cameras are worth
What lifts the price
- Clean, fungus-free glass in any attached lens
- Sought-after compact and SLR models that gained a following
What pulls it down
- Sticky or slow shutter speeds, common on cameras left unused for years
- Battery corrosion in the compartment
Working out what yours is worth
- Fire the shutter at every speed and listen for ones that hang
- Shine a torch through the lens looking for haze or fungus threads
Getting it ready
- Fire the shutter at every speed and listen — slow speeds sticking is the classic fault on stored film cameras.
- Open the back and check the light seals. Perished foam is extremely common and cheap to replace, but must be disclosed.
