1 D MK 4, market used

Thinking about selling my mint 1 D Mk 4, don't see many on the forum or EB. Any ideas of value? Thanks

4k????

I'd say $4200-$4300. I paid $4300 for mine with 400 shots on it about 6 months ago on FM.

I see them going for ~4K occasionally. 3400 and under are usually sold within hours.

better hurry up. once the 1D X's start rolling, kiss 1k value goodbye.

This is completely wrong. Please ignore him.

If the 1DX really does launch at $6800, then the 1D Mark IV used values will not go down at all.

When the replacement for a camera is 40% higher, then the used body pricing does not soften.

I agree. Its also been mentioned (on Canon's site I believe) that the 1D4 will coexist with the 1Dx, at least for now.

As for pricing, depending on the condition, I've seen them posted on here, FM, and other vendors between $3500 (decently used) - $4500 (brand new).

Nope--If you believe Chuck this is the last 1.3. He is falling all over himself trying to explain away the shortcomings of the 1Dx.

The 1D4 is a hot commodity among supertele shooters.

Well I would think people would sell their used camera bodies for a lot less then what Canon sells them for at their refurbished price of $3,999.20. I've seen them going on CL for around $3,500.00-$4,200.00.

Take Care,
Cheers, Patrick

YUP

Unless canon has something up their sleeve thats going to fill that void at 5K,,im almost willing to bet they are gonna eat some crow and leave that MKIV in the line up for another year or two before it goes out of production. MKIV is a great little camera and will be in demand for a while, especially low count ones. Problem of depreciation will come in when they start getting over 100k on the counts. But anything is going to depreciate with a higher shutter count,,even the 1Dx.

I'll have to dig up the article I read, but as I said above, the 1D4 is supposed to coexist with the 1Dx. No word on the duration though.

There was one at BnH last week and if memory serves me it was pennies short of $4400.

Every article I've seen says the new 1DX will replace, not co-exist with, every other 1D series body.

The Canon EOS-1D X is the latest in the company's professional range of DSLRs. Its job is to replace both the sports-orientated 1D series and the high-resolution, studio-focused 1DS range of cameras. As is usual for upgrades in this class of camera, the changes are incremental and subtle but aim to raise the bar of what is possible.

I heard that too. However, I don't see why the IV and the X can't co-exist, at least until the X production catches up with demand. I suspect the IV will be available for awhile yet, and that is a good thing. It's a brilliant camera and IV owners are lucky indeed.
