Since this thread seems to be on a sentimental bent, allow me to briefly
introduce myself and why I popped in.  My name is Jim Timpe and I'm a
regular participant on the Ol*mpus list.  My father is and has always been a
Pentax guy, but his failing eyesight caused him to move to autofocus
equipment.  Some of what he's given me I'll briefly list;

LX body with three different finders.
Two complete flash setups (280 and 400).
About seventeen different lenses, the gems of which are
        a) SMC 50/1.2
        b) SMC-A 85/1.4
        c) SMC 200/2.5
        d) SMC shift 28/3.5
        e) 500/4.5
Lots of other various and sundry bits and pieces of associated gear.

I've gleaned from E*ay a fairly accurate valuation for the LX body and
finders, but the lenses are a little harder to track down.  The 85, 200,
shift, and 500 all have their requisite hard cases, and are in EX or EX+
shape.  The 50 is what I tend to keep on the body, I don't have a case for
it, and it's EX-.  I guess I'm fishing for your opinion on approximate
values for the lenses.  I'd ask one of the on line dealers, but can't quite
believe they'd be completely forthright with their answers.

Any answers and opinions welcome.  I'll probably hang around for a day or so
and see what kind of responses I get before I bail and return to the 'other'
list.

Thanks,
Jim
PS  Hope my etiquette is OK
