I have a Minolta Maxxum 7000 with a 35-105 AF lens on it...haven't used it in eyars, I presume all it needs is new batteries.

I would think they would be abundantly available nowadays considering the fact that everyone is using digital cameras now. There used to be a magazine called Shutterbug that was basically a collection of camera ads. I think it's actually published in Florida. You can look in one of those to get an idea of what a fair price might be.

I just pulled out my Asahi Pentax! Good timing. It's not for sale, but in its day it was a great SLR.

A historical note.
Although the Pentax used the M42 screw mount for its lens mount, it was not invented by them. It was invented by Pentacon an (East) German firm, a company with several "firsts", but largely unknown, in the West. Pentax built very fine SLRs, silky smooth in operation

Just as there's nostalgia for old MG and Triumphs . . . the Pentax, whether Asahi or Honeywell, Spotmatic, SPII or the like, it was a tin can with a rubber cloth shutter and lenses that seemed well suited for growing mold cultures.
On the other hand, the Nikon F was the swiss army knife of SLRs. Different viewfinders, 100% frame viewing screens, weighted light metering, film backs, motordrives . . . and the ability to develop your upper torso muscles while lugging it around. |

Or drive the occasional nail, if need be.

I have couple of bodies of Minolta SLRs, all pro series. The 9000AF, 9xi and 9 with assortment of lenses. Since slide development is getting harder these days and I don't use or like the digital format, I am retiring from photography period and therefore all my equipment is up for grabs.
