Twins (100D & 400D)

Thanks guys, I am glad I am not alone.

Only, I feel pangs of conscience, because I can still sell it for $250.

I'd rather to donate it to someone close, like I did last  year with MFT, than sell it to a stranger. But no-one in sight.

It's good to see your twins.

I don't know about you, but I keep my older cameras. I keep them so long they are hardly worth anything and occasionally it's fun to take pictures with them. Last year, I found a 4mp Olympus Camedia camera for $5 (USD) at a recycle center. It came complete with a 128mb Smart Media card. All I had to do is get rechargeable batteries. I play around with that one and sometimes I use my older Olympus DSLR cameras for fun too. But of course, most of my pictures now come from my Canon DSLR cameras.

Me, I sell my old cameras then buy them again.:) I usually sell my old cameras to help me finance buying a new one. Then when I find a still fine version of the camera that I sold in the used market that I can afford I usually buy it.

I've been in this EOS merry go round for sometime.These are the apsc Canon cams that for one reason or another I never owned -10D, 300D, 40D, 400D, 70D, 650D, 700D, 100D. I mean the Canon apsc's where digits precede the D. There were Canon apsc's that started with D like D30 but they were still so expensive and I was still using film then.

Maybe in two years time there will be a used 100D that I could buy. Funny but I bought the 350D thrice and the 30D and 450D twice. I usually sell my cams on the cheap cuz I'm a rugged user. But I'm also a bit of a bargain hunter.

GAS, fetish or dpreview virus? I can't make up my mind. I started collecting used bodies when i started collecting old manual lenses. When I went FF I sold all my apsc stuff but after a while I started missing them that I bought them again from the used market.
