Would any Canon afficionado be able to assist me? I need to update my camera, and I will be staying with Canon as my lenses are all that make (28-135 mm, 50 mm and 18-55 mm). My present camera is a Canon DSLR 300D, and it’s twelve years old. I would appreciate some advice on the best model to get, and whether it would be a good idea to buy secondhand.

Many thanks,Sheila

Hi Sheila,

I just ordered a refurbished SL2 (200D) directly from Canon:

https://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/cameras/refurbished-eos-interchangeable-lens-cameras

I have not yet received it, so I can't say anything about the condition of the camera, but I have seen multiple people on this forum recommend the refurbished store, so I feel optimistic. The savings are pretty good, and they have just about every current model of Canon camera available.

The big retailers, (B&H, Adorama, etc.) have used departments, so you might also check there.

Best of luck with your search!

Danny

Given Sheila is talking about the 300D rather than a Rebel, it looks likely she's not in the US, which rules out the Canon refurbs and rather limits NYC retailers.

Sheila, where in the world are you so we can make tailored suggestions?
