It seems to me that well-maintained camera packages retain their value amazingly well (almost too well, from a buyer's perspective!). Has anyone come across a rough formula for calculating the value of a camera over time -- assuming the camera remains in good shape and the market doesn't crumble?
This is a question about 16mm cameras in general, although in my case, I'm looking to buy a used Aaton XTR prod package.
I'll take a stab in the dark and put the rate that camera's lose their value at 3 to 5 percent per year. I'd love for someone more knowledgeable to correct me.
