forget the 20d how about the 1d2

so i can pick up a 1d2 for about 550 its got alot of actuations tho 126k

is 550 a good deal and is 126k just asking for trouble?

anyone?

Where are you? What currency? I'm at the gambling end of the market regarding actuations. If 'twere sterling, I'd take a punt; could fail tomorrow or soldier on past the MkVI !

Seems a bit pricey if it's sterling. Mine cost me £450 back in March this year. In very good nick (just wear on the hotshoe & around the shutter release) with about 67k actuations.

Great body though, I love it!

if i knew what sterling was id be able to answer that. im in usa but the seller was on ebay and it was from australia but its ended now so im over it it actually ended up going to 720 us dollars plus 70 for shipping i laughed then closed the window

Pounds Sterling - (UK)

It helps a lot to put your location in your profile (or even in the post asking for the info) to save about a dozen post asking you where you live

well, you said the auction ended but for future info ~700 aint a 'bad' price for a 1D2... although I sold mine locally just a month or so ago and the guy had to literally pry the damn thing out of my hands while I wept... and i got $750 for mine with 115K on the clock.

Chunky pixels are really fun.

If the shutter fails, does Canon still maintenance discontinued cameras especially one of that age?

Canon will service 1 series for longer time than fancy xxD or xD series.

Try keh.com.

I got mine with 142k a month ago in Montreal , Canada for $400.00 and it work like a charm...I would say go for it and try to negociate the price a little

Last time I checked they were going for $700+ range so $600 is real good IMHO.
