**Detailed item info**

**Product Information** One of the most advanced SLR cameras available today, the Nikon F5 features an autofocus with five highly-sensitive sensors that will keep up with subjects at a stunning 8 frames per second. The light meter, the first in-camera meter with color sensitivity, divides the frame into 1005 discrete units. It then analyzes the light and color patterns and compares them against thousands of images that have been programmed into the camera’s on board memory. Users can adjust the size of the center weighted metering area from 8mm to 20mm for more accurate small area metering. Exposure control is controlled further via EV compensation, AF and AE lock controls, four exposure control systems, full manual control and automatic balanced fill flash that can be set in increments. A wide array of backs, viewfinders and other accessories make this the most advanced camera in the Nikon system.

You are going to see no where near $700 dollars for this thing…

You may be able to find a local Pro photographer to buy it for a few hundred bucks.

best bet is ebay

Yeah 35mm SLRs do not hold their value. I got $200 for my Nikon and that was luck.

What filters are those next to the camera?  
Camera bodies are tough to sell, they loose value quickly. Lenses however hold value very well.

Looks like it’s in good shape, it will make someone a nice set up.
