F3HP: did I pay a good price? + need info on a lens

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Camera Equipment : One Thread

Hello. I just bought a Nikon F3HP in beautiful condition (the only spot on it is a small ding in the finder)which came with an MD-4 motor drive and a Carl Zeiss Jena II 24mm 1:2.8 lens with the word 'Macro' on it. I paid US$647.28 for all of it; can anyone tell me if this is a good price for what I got? (It's a fantastic camera; I love it!)

Also, can anyone tell me anything about this lens, the Carl Zeiss Jena II 24mm 1:2.8 lens with the word 'Macro' which I mentioned above? Specifically: what does 'Macro' mean? Is it a good lens? Is it expensive/cheap? And anything else that might be worthy of note. Thanks to all,

Ken
