Here's my new camera

OK..... so ryans is better....

Ryan^p · 27th May 2009, 03:19

looks in very good condition that, I got you quite a good deal by the looks of it... I should have just gone and bought that as a back up lol!

I stole the thunder from beneath you

1D FTW

Viper · 27th May 2009, 03:24

yeah you did get me a good deal. very grateful for that

cheers!

came with 7GB of memory. in the form of 3x 2GB and 1x 1GB

2 batteries, all manuals, CDs etc fully boxed. not a mark on the camera.

picture numbering was set to continuous and the last photo i took was "IMG_3439" which would lead me to believe just under 3500 actuations??

Thats not the most accurate at times as you can reset it etc.... Mines been well over that as iirc the file numbering system only goes up to about 9,999 at max, before then going to a serperate folder, so for instance 901,902,903 etc... are some folders mine comes up with.

Chances are it might be a sub 4k camera looking at its condition. Hmm really should have bought that LOL!

I didnt know he was including memory so good stuff. Ive just spent £60 on memory/batteries/card reader/etc...

Ryan^p · 27th May 2009, 03:34

on another point its good you have a metal body and not a fisherprice 350/400/450D

jaybiss · 27th May 2009, 08:29

Looks sweet Tom

You looking to get some new lenses as well soon?

Nothing wrong with fisherprice Ryan. Bad news for me, no 70-200 for ages now, laptops broke so having to buy a new one

Viper · 27th May 2009, 09:06

cheers jay

yeah, im planning for new lenses. hoping for a 70-200 and then some sort of decent wider angle. dont know what though

don55 · 27th May 2009, 11:08

ahh ha, at last, well done tom.

glad you found a bargain

Jungle_Jim^m · 27th May 2009, 11:21

looks good buddy, how much did that set you back mate, get a battery grip on there they seem to last forever running two batteries at the same time

Matty_VTR · 27th May 2009, 11:22

Very nice Camera Tom!

negative.... if it bungs 100 pics into a single folder you might be able to tell by the folder designation. If it bungs 1000 pics into a folder then you won't know I'm afraid.

Good buy there man

craigy_87 · 27th May 2009, 13:03

ahhh nice camera, i've got a 20D aswell

need more lenses but no funds to allow so it sits there unused which is a shame
