Is this secondhand DSLR camera worth buying?
This is the seller’s description.
“Canon EOS 10D Digital SLR
Current bid: $350.00
Megapixels: 6MP
I purchased this camera new in 2003 to travel around the world. It has been a great camera to own and use. The build quality is stunning being a huge step up over the plastic EOS 300D.
The shutter was replaced by Canon NZ after it failed in 2004 and I have had no problems with it since.
Included with the package is
- EOS 10D Camera
- Canon Software disk
- Neck Strap
- 2xBP511 Batteries
- 1xBP512 Battery (same capacity different shape)
- USB Cable
- RCA Cable
- Manuals
- Original Box
- 512mb compact flash card
The camera is in good condition.”
A 10D is way too old to pay anything more than $100 for what’s being offered – it doesn’t even come with a lens. I wouldn’t even pay $100 for it, that’s the sort of thing that gets traded for an xbox or something. That isn’t a package, it’s what came with the camera. If you are flat broke and you absolutely need a camera, than sure go ahead. But if you can add another $300, you can get a camera that is far more advanced with double the resolution, with a lens.
P.S. My D80 isn’t worth $350, and it’s a better camera. A dealer offered me $270 for it, if I upgraded. Older digital technology isn’t worth crap these days. Film cameras actually hold better value. So there you go.
