I have some photos of this stuff (and other stuff) available:
        http://www.Bytesmiths.com/eBay

I'm slowly starting to put this stuff on evilBay, so if you want any  
of it, better speak up! I'm putting the least-desirable stuff up  
first. (The focusing screens may end up going for $0.99 each, plus  
shipping...)

Some updates and corrections:

* Upon careful inspection with #3 reading glasses, I see that the  
350/2.8 has some coating scratches on the front. These are barely  
discernable to the over-40 eye, but with careful lighting and the ZD  
50mm macro (see the pix link, above), they look rather disturbing! The  
lens still takes great pictures, but is not "collector quality," and  
I'm downgrading the glass quality to be similar to body quality: 7.

* The 50/2 Macro is spoken for.

* The Beattie focusing screen is spoken for. I have one more.

* The T-32 with the glue seems to have some problems upon testing.  
Fires full-power, but couldn't get TTL to work. Best thought of as a  
parts flash.

* The Winder 1 does not appear to be working. Parts only.

* Neither M.15 battery pack will hold a charge for 24 hours. The  
uglier one will hold a charge for a few minutes, just long enough to  
verify it works. The minty one holds a charge for several hours.

* The MD-1 is not working properly. It fires sporadically, sometimes  
taking several frames even when set to SINGLE. Best thought of as parts.

* The FL-40 works properly on manual, but I have no way of testing it  
on TTL Auto. Google suggests TTL on this flash was specifically  
designed for C-series cameras, and won't work on my E-3.

If you've contacted me about any of this and I haven't gotten back to  
you, please try again... baby goats arrived unexpectedly on top of  
everything else...
