Question by what about government grants?: What would be the best way to sell a nondigital 35mm Minolta camera with a zoom lens?
Since everyone is buying digital cameras these days, what is the best way for me to sell my older 35mm Minolta camera with a zoom lens and some attachments? Who would be most interested in such a camera?

Don’t expect to get a lot out of it. Unless it’s really old and collectible (which is doubtful), it has very little value.
Search through eBay for cameras that are a similar age and model number to get an idea of what it’s worth and how they are selling. Then use one of those ads as a model for your own ad.
eBay is usually the best because a wider audience stands the best chance of bidding the price up as much as possible. But don’t get your hopes up too high.
And if it’s not worth the trouble of listing, you can always donate it to your local Salvation Army or Goodwill store. They’ll appreciate it. And the tax write-off may be worth more than what you could get by selling it.
Good luck.

Blackbird Fly 35mm TLR Twin Lens Reflex Camera – Black with Orange Face Reviews
Blackbird Fly 35mm TLR Twin Lens Reflex Camera – Black with Orange Face
- Shutter speed of 1/125
- Standard 35mm film format
The Blackbird, fly is a twin-lens reflex camera: one lens is used to expose the film, while the other is used like a viewfinder. It’s a famous style of camera whose history stretches back to the 1920s. The Blackbird fly uses 35mm film. There are two ways to take a picture with the Blackbird fly. For quiet and reflective framing, you can hold the camera at waist level and look down, to compose your shot using the finder lens. For a quicker style of shot, you can use the sportsfinder, which approximates a viewfinder through a notch in the top of the camera. The Blackbird fly can take pictures in standard 35mm film format (24×36), but using a different (provided) mask, it can also produce square format pictures (24×24). You can even remove the mask entirely and make a larger square format image (36×36), which fills up the entire width of the 35mm film, including the side sprocket holes. For shooting during the day, you can alternate between apertures f/7 and f/11, with a shutter speed of 1/125. At night, you can switch the shutter to B-mode to let in as much light as you might need, or you can also attach a flash for even more possibilities. Variable focusing, from 0.8 meters, makes for a sharp subject. The Blackbird fly uses a wide-angle 33mm lens and also allows you to take multiple exposures on the same frame.
