Now that 50D has been given the video feature (fullHD at 30fps, better than nothing) it is even more good to buy as second hand.

Good buy or goodbye Thanks Jeff That price is a too high for the number of actuations the camera is close to the end of it's life... kinda. I Wouldn't pay more than $400-50 the kit. If the shutter goes it will cost about $250 or more to fix. Fear the Gear!

Maybe I missed that button on mine  I know the 50d pretty well, my main concern was for the shutter count being 80k and the shutter is rated for 100k Magic Lantern, the firmware, was just updated for the 50D.

Good buy or goodbye Thanks Jeff That seems a bit steep these days, even with the grip. Browse the FS forums here, you're bound to find a decent deal. Head Photography

The only thing bothering me would be the ISO performance, but that seems like a fair tradeoff, you just can't get it all!  I use mine at 1600 and 3200 pretty regularly without issue. Head Photography

You could check Canon's refurb page and wait for the 50D to be back in stock... or by a T2i. http://shop.usa.canon.com …1_-1_29252_highPrice_grid Do they come in stock often these days? Might check in every now and then.
