I was just given two old cameras...

My neighbor just gave me two old cameras that I know nothing about. They are both in amazing condition.

One has "Minolta 16QT" written on the hard case, and on the inside is a tiny camera.

The other is the Kodak version of the polaroid camera (what she told me). She says there's no film made for it anymore, though.

Are either of these worth anything?

Here are some pictures:

Not sure about the Minolta, but the Kodak works brilliantly as a door stop.:thumbsup:

That COLORBURST logo is ****ing amazing.

If I'm understanding that Minolta correctly, it has a shutter speed of 30 OR 250. Seems peculiar.

Might be the flavour.....

Keep the Polaroid and try to get some film. Then put it in a safe!

In 50 years, you can cash in on your investment. Museums or collectors will buy them up.

Umm, they're already 32 years old, and still aren't worth anything.
Might have had something to do with that whole copy-write infringement thing...:thumbsup:

BTW, it's a Kodak.

Oh. Never mind.

Edit: Sometimes I don't read threads, I just scroll really fast with my mousewheel and try to absorb everything Johnny-5-style.

I swear I saw Polaroid in here...
