All was in perfect working order with some brassing on the body. Elpro closeup, a case and a funky fish-eye attachment were included. Price was $800 a year ago, actually a good buy then (and now). $1600 seems too high unless everything were in really great shape with no repairs necessary. Probably $1600 is around what you would pay a dealer for all the equipment if you bought it individually.
