Default What to look out for? 2nd hand cam

Hi! Can anyone advise on what to look out for before buying a 2nd hand Dslr? 7d.

Beside dings and dents on the cam body, what other items to check?

The price of the Dynax 7D has dropped. TCW is selling Maxxum 7D at SGD1699. I think the unit has only got TCW warranty.

Hard to say what to look for, you have to shoots a few photos, download and see whether any problems or not.

Generally, if the deal is too good to be true, then it probably is.

Best if you know the seller... if not, test the camera and see how it works. Generally it will be fine unless has been drop or damage, you can check the physical status.

Other than that... it should be fine.

Thanks guys though the advices came a little late.

Nevertheless, I have decided to resume as a minolta user under the 7D fleet.
