ChromeLibrarian Senior Member More info Post edited over 3 years ago by ChromeLibrarian. | Aug 13, 2020 14:00 | #1 Several weeks ago, my wife was moving my beloved 1D from one spot to another. It slipped and dropped on a concrete floor. Now it will not turn on. I haven't looked into what it would cost to repair it, yet. Assuming it would even be worth doing, as opposed to trading it in, along with a Canon SX20 IS and a 20D towards a lens. However, she felt so bad about it, she went online to Adorama, and ordered me an 80D in E+ condition. That is due to be delivered this afternoon.

She does know some about cameras, through her association with mine. She owns a Rebel T5. She looked up what was available used and in her price range at Adorama, then compared features of the available cameras vs my old 1d before settling on the 80D.

I don't think you will get very much for a 19 year old camera that won't turn on. Not even for parts. I really doubt Canon would look at it. Glad you are getting a new one. Sometimes you just need to move on. Make a glass case for it and keep it for memories you had. Image Editing OK
