![]() DSLR shutters have a life span (different for each camera)
a new shutter is about 250 dollars. so thats something to consider when buying a used camera. |

![]() Thanks for the info guys
Being new to cameras perhaps buying used is not a good idea ? |

![]() I would only consider used if you know the previous owner.
The first thing would be to decide what lens system you want to get into. Lots of choices out there, but the big ones are Nikon or Canon. -- what do people you know shoot with? would they lend you gear? something to consider Go out and try holding some of the bodies you are interested in. I found that I didn't like the way Canons fit in my hand, and the menu system wasn't to my liking. |

![]() My wife is interested in selling her Canon EOS 20D with 17 - 55 lens, 2 x 2gb cards, 2 batteries etc + all original accessories. We still have the box from when we bought it brand new. It is in excellent condition and has never been dropped or handled roughly. She no longer uses the camera as we upgraded to the EOS 5D mk2.
We have a few other Canon lenses and a Canon flash that we would be open to offers on as well. Price would be $400obo Cheers, Tim

![]() Just what Marko said.
These cameras have a life span. I would NEVER purchase a used DSLR. There is no way to know how many pictures was taken with it. Just like a car that engine only lasts so long. Despite how well the previous owner took care of it, despite how well its currently working and how nice it looks, its going to stop being so nice at one point or another, except at least with the cars, you can see the odometer. I would stick with Canon. You can get some great brand new Rebel kits for a great price. Especially if you can find a store that has an older model. Canon brings out new rebel models like theres no tomorrow, which brings down the value of the old ones fairly quickly. Broadway Camera is a great place to start, however they may not have too many older models kicking around since their such a popular store. |
