Well lads,
Made the first real step to getting my Photography business endeavour off the ground. Since my funds were low I was going to go with a single lower range DSLR (nikon D60 and such) but then I came across this on ebay.
Totaly cost (including postage and insurance) £757.50 for the lot.
What do you guys think? I think I got a pretty solid steal there.

There are some minor scuffs on the bodies from general usage. All the lenses are in good working order with no visable marks, glass scratches or fungal growths. The Opteka 500mm Mirror Lens does have a scratch around the mounting ring area, this was caused by a loose screw on the mounting adaptor, the sratch can only be seen when the lens is off the bodie and does not effect the usage.
