On my second trip, I visited this third stall again. The owner had placed out another few cameras, including an Canon AV-1. The AV-1 is an FD mount, aperture priority 35mm SLR, brother of the much more seen AE-1. While the vendor still wanted absurd prices for the other bodies, I managed to talk him down on the AV1. I guess its beat up black finish didn't sell as well as the vintage silver bodies. In the end, I managed to buy the body for 130HKD, about 17USD. Not bad for a body that works fine. It even had a decent battery!

Sadly, he still wanted absurd prices for his lenses (50 bucks for a dirty FD 50mm? Please.). I looked around some more, came back another day and even visited some other shops- but no dice. My lenses would have be found elsewhere.
