Not sure if this is the right way to post this ... if not, please let me know what is.
A friend of mine has acquired a camera kit that consists of the following:
* Nikkormat FT2 (at least that's what it looks like) camera body
* 70-200mm zoom
* 50mm f/1.4
* 35mm f/2.8
* 135mm f/3.5
All lenses appear to be Nikon brand.
All of this fits comfortably into a case that has a design which is unusual in my experience. It's made of what looks like leather or fake leather. Inside the case, just above the case bottom, is a steel plate. In the plate are four holes that mate with the bayonet mounts on the four lenses, so that in order to remove any lens from the case you have to push a button and twist the lens, exactly as if you were taking it off the camera.
The lenses all appear to be functional, although I have no idea when film was last run through it.
Would this kit be worth anything to a collector?
