I was looking for a film SLR and was very tight on budget. I got lucky to get a deal on a "mint+ condition 1973 GAF L14 + 35/2.8 Chinon + 55/1.8 Chinon + 70-230/4.5 Chinon + 2 filters + 3 Hoya close-up lenses + 1 Yoshi Flash + a camera bag + a camera book" for $40. Some people said that the Chinon glass was just average. I still have to take some pictures and develope the roll to see it but one thing is for sure that the mechanical quality is superb. All metal finish just makes them a pleasure to handle.
