Concluded another successful eBay sale this past week (this time for the Nikon SB-50DX Electronic Flash).

On the heels of concluding another sale on eBay last week am offering for auction another item today.

The Nikon Autofocus Speedlight SB-50DX, a compact, multi-function electronic flash unit, was a great companion to the Nikon F100 camera.  It's small, light-weight and just enough power for making indoor shots of family and social gatherings.

Am finding this eBay model is a great way to rotate photo gear; perfectly good items are finding good homes, my closet is cleaner, and no longer feel guilty about gear seeing insufficient use.

Based on the success of selling the Nikon 80-200mm lens on eBay mid last year have decided to offer up another item for auction.

The Nikon F100 purchased in March 2004 (as described in this blog previously) was an ideal upgrade for me.  At that time my camera du jour was a Nikon N8008s.  Although it was in top notch condition, was interested in moving up to a more sophisticated camera.  And thought this new Nikon F100 would hold me for several years while the digital SLR technology got sorted out by the market place.

In September 2005, however, was in Singapore's Sim Lim Square and lured to the Nikon D70s.  After negotiating with several shop owners finally arrived at a price that was hard to beat.  Since that day, have yet to shoot a single frame with a film camera.

Given the Nikon F100 was still new to me at the time, never gave a thought to selling it.  But as time went by and it saw no use, decided it was time to say good-bye to this classic Nikon camera.  Am offering this Nikon F100 for sale on eBay today, therefore, in hopes it may find a good home.

Holding an (end of) spring cleaning sale.  Have a closet full of gear, but am no longer using several items which could certainly be put to better use by someone else.

The newspaper classified ads have always been a reliable method for buying & selling cars, cameras, and appliances.  But today suspect the newspaper audience is smaller and perhaps a bit too narrow for selling some of the higher end photo gear have accumulated over the past few years.  Making the eBay plunge today, therefore, with the first of several items (Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8D AF ED IF Lens) to be offered for auction.
