We pick the best used camera deals

What’s the deal with buying used gear from other countries? Is it hard to get something repaired from someone toner than manufacturer?

Nikon for example? I’m not tryna get something used and have issues with repairs

Canon eos m as a so cheap featureful camera

Nikon D4s or d3s

i was hoping for 100£$ or even less lol. Maybe cheap to some is a little different

V good video, plz advice me best photo camera for wedding videography under 1000$, used one,plz reply.

This might be controversial, but also look at used camera with certain flaws that you either don't care or can fix. I bought a flawed Canon 6D for $150 Canadian. The flaws are the back screen is cracked (still works), video button is broken, and the mode dial is stuck and wont' turn.

Cracked screen, just put a screen protector glass on top.

Video button broken, I don't do video. This doesn't work for everyone, but works for me.

Mode dial stuck, this is because the mode dial label is just a loose piece of paper and it often comes off. And people would try to glue that paper back on the dial, which results in the glue jamming/sticking the turn. What I did was rip off the mode dial paper, and pull out all the glue that was jamming the central axis. Then I taped the mode dial paper back on. It turns and works again.

MPB is competitive too. You don't have to buy mirrorless. I have a mix of mirrorless, and DSLRs. Both are amazing used. I still love my Canon 1D mk.4, and 6D, and Sony a7Rii. My Sony a6400 too. All used. All the glass is used too.

eos r used with 50mm 1.8 lens, got for 950 flat

Lumix GX85 i think its worth mention her 4k capabilities with IBIS under $500 or Lumix GF9 i see one sell at under $160 with kit lens.

I agree. Olympus EM1 mk2 is a top choice. Crazy camera for the money.

Hello,
I watch your videos carefully to choose a model. Congratulations on the work done.
In a grand max budget of 1000 euros with lens, what second-hand cameras could you recommend? I just saw the X-H1 around 700 euros in France. What is it worth compared to 1 X-S10 which I really like.

What. does Chris say in his intros when he says " welcome back * ** ** *** viewers? does he mention the devil?

The used prices I've found on the Panasonic S1 seem pretty close to some current cameras so I don't see the great value there. The real value is in Nikon DSLR's though, especially for stills.

I think pics from todays photografer is bad

Love the idea with the Z7. Got one too and all in all a really good body. The firmware has brought it along way, too. Have a 24-70 F4 on it mostly, mainly due to size, making it a great "bread and butter" combination. The F mount Sigma 50mm F1,4 and Nikon 70-200 F4 round it out nicely for me. I invested in memory cards, bags, flashes, batteries and mostly workshops. The latest one with Dan Hecho. That has been the greatest experience. Works for me. =)

no matter which used digital camera we go for, even if it's in perfect working condition -- bod-wise that is mostly -- we just have to make sure its image sensor is still working right and it's not burnt, especially in the middle, which is what happens to digital ICML / video cameras that are aimed at capturing sunrise / sunset shots a lot, still or video ... same with digital video cameras that have taken shots with the midday sun included in the view for long minutes ...(SLR still film / movie cameras don't have that problem ...)

Hey Chris, I cannot believe it has a digital photography spokesperson, you can't hang a picture straight.

I got a used panasonic G9 a couple of months ago with great IBIS, 10bit Video (even without the payed v-log upgrade), linear focus (with some lenses - good for follow focus), much improved autofocus over the years etc. for 550€ - great camera - in combination with some prime lenses (15mm 1,7 - 25mm 1,4 - 43,5mm 1,7) nice bokeh and not so bad in low light as one might think.

D810... best 'bang for the buck' full frame... world class dynamic range... less than $1000... 50+ lenses available for it... ;)

Where are you finding a7R III's for that price?

i got a used X-A7 with XC15-45 for $500 and loved it. very capable little camera.

A year ago I bought used Panasonic Lumix GH5 with 5 batteries and V-log preinstalled. I use it for landscape photography when cycling in the mountains and making some YT videos. It is already 5 years old but it still amazes me how capable it is.

I understand that you want to go with mirrorless and i see point but if you'd just search D850 and it's current prices in used market and just look back at all your pics, you'd see my point as well. Defense rests your honor.

I just picked up a used Leica M Typ 246 for a bit under 3300 EUR. Honestly a great deal for it.

But not everyone's gonna want B&W only body.

I saved some money by going Leica. Picked up a used T, their first camera with an L-mount, for 399€ and a used Sigma prime for 250€. The TL and especially TL 2 are even better. IMHO the system was undervalued. The original lenses for the system are less affordable, off course.

Zee, Not Zed.

Couldn't agree more with these choices. The M6 II is the smallest and lightest for what it is. It's an absolutely cracking camera in a tiny tiny body, but still manages to have excellent controls etc. Absolutely overlooked compared to a lot of things out there. The X-T3 is a fabulous camera that really did everything well. The S1 is fantastic (but worth mentioning that Log is a paid upgrade, so worth getting one with it preinstalled). Not only does it have that great video spec, but it also got an excellent heavy duty body that puts most others to shame, has a better EVF than most as well. The A7R III is a good buy and the Sony system is by far the most extensive.

this feels like a fever dream you guys aren't bullying each other

you forgot about Panasonic S5

Jordan gave the best recommendations.

X-T3 is really amazing, especially after the latest Firmware Updates

Chris and Jordan are my favourite hosts in the world of camera reviews hands down

Now the A7RIII will be more expensive.

The Olympus (branded) OM-D E-M5 Mk III is a great, compact, mirrorless Micro Four Thirds camera on closeout from OM System to make room for the OM-5 for only $900.00 - $300.00 off. I recently got one and with a compact medium wide angle to short telephoto zoom it's become my super small go with me all the time camera.

Everything above 12 mpx threshold is great. And we hit it like 10 years ago.

I just traded in my E-M 5ii for the E-M 1ii, I loved the 5ii, but wanted an upgrade that wasn't going to break the bank. Looking forward to getting the E-M 1ii and using it out on my photo-hikes!

Fujifilm X-H1 is also majorly overlooked, absolute killer prices for a *then top of the line Fujifilm mirrorless system with IBIS, full weather sealing and one of the most astoundingly quiet shutters I've ever heard.

S1 vs s1r?
A few hundred difference used.
Is the auto focus worse on the larger s1 r sensor?

I absolutely love my M6 m6ii , good choice

I just traded in my EM1 mk2, Sony A7R3, and my M43rd lenses to pay for my A7R5. 😂

D700 for the win!

I just got a D5 for only a little over 1k bucks. Its got 335k actuations and is a little rough, but its a D5 dual xqd for the deal of the century

Canon 5D Mark ii

oh cool

Got myself almost new a7r III in May for 1500euro, much cheaper than z7 (1900e) or D850 (2100e). That price, plus the huge range of lenses makes that there's no competition really. Couldn't be happier!

M6 really? you're talking about mirorless future and against DSLR and recommend the half dead EF-M lens mount? that makes no sense at all. the olympus is ok, but stillt not that future proof. the s1 was the only good tip. the last month of dpreview was quite disappointing.

btw. the d800 is worth mentioning.

Just bought a Fuji XH-1 brand new in box for $900

I understood why you stayed with mirrorless, but there are so many great deals on SLR bodies and lenses…anyone who is looking for the best bang for the noct will find it in the SLR space
