FAQ

Questions about selling camera equipment in Berlin.

Do you buy old film cameras in Berlin?

Yes. Berlin Photo Studio assesses analogue cameras from compact 35mm cameras to SLR, rangefinder, medium-format, large-format and instant-camera systems. Purchase depends on condition, functionality and current demand.

What analogue photography equipment can I sell?

We consider cameras, lenses, flashes, light meters, film scanners, enlargers and useful darkroom equipment. Contact us first for large or specialist items.

Can I sell a broken or untested camera?

You can ask us to assess it, but we may decline equipment that is incomplete, heavily damaged or uneconomical to repair. Please describe any known fault honestly before the inspection.

Is store credit worth more than cash?

It can be. Because store credit returns through purchases at Berlin Photo Studio, it may give us more room to improve the value of an offer. The exact difference is confirmed after inspection.

Can I receive credit for film development?

Yes, accepted equipment can be exchanged for film-development and scanning credit when that option is included in our offer.

How do you calculate the value?

We consider working condition, optical and mechanical quality, cosmetic condition, included accessories, repair risk and current resale demand. Every item is valued individually.

Do I need an appointment?

Emailing us first is recommended, especially for collections, scanners, enlargers and darkroom equipment. We can then confirm what to bring and arrange a suitable inspection.
