Description:

Canon 30D with 18-55mm Kit Lens
Comes with
- Original box and all cables
- Canon House Charger

I will also include a 2 Gig Sandisk compact flash card and can throw in a monopod, very handy for shooting sports.

The camera itself has a few scuffs from use in the usual spots, around the flash hot shoe etc.
Its a brilliant camera that is working 100% and has never let me down. You can take a look through my flickr here for a few examples of shots taken with it.
It has been used for my job as a photojournalist and has handled every challenge thrown at it, everything from sport to landscapes and portraits.

The camera is 8.2 mega pixel and takes Compact Flash cards.

shepthedog
shepthedog says 14/10/2009 12:16 pm (2 years ago):

@voxpop, would need to be getting closer to the 400 mark.. battery life is very good, and not showing any problems due to age or use.

@ pippatee, yep still available..

voxpop
voxpop asked a question 14/10/2009 12:48 pm (2 years ago):

As you have used the camera a lot (ie for you job) - id like to know the number of shutter actuations also.

I dont know much about cameras - but there are alot of 400d around that are cheaper, is the 30D alot better than 400D ? Would it suit a relative beginner ?

DIRTY69
DIRTY69 asked a question 14/10/2009 3:36 pm (2 years ago):

consider swap for nikon D50?

shepthedog
shepthedog says 15/10/2009 1:12 pm (2 years ago):

@vox, I can try figure out actuations tonight when get home.. Will post up if find out.. Yes the 30D would suit a beginner but also offer scope to improve.

@dirty69, no thanks, I'm a Canon man only!

shepthedog says 19/10/2009 10:14 am (2 years ago):

Offer withdrawn, got one on Amazon.

shepthedog says 22/10/2009 4:20 pm (2 years ago):

OK have researched shutter actuations on 30D and there does not seem to be a way to get the figure without sending away to Canon.

The camera has never given me a minutes problems or indicated any shutter issues. The 30D was replaced in my kit as soon as I started working full time professionally so it hasnt seen too much hardship..

voxpop

Hey, thanks for trying anyway-I guess its a risk with second hand SLRs. At a push I can offer 350, but that my upper limit, actually its 50 quid past my limit!

shepthedog
shepthedog says 22/10/2009 11:21 pm (2 years ago):

@voxpop - Ok, what about splitting it with me? 375? You are getting nice bit of extras and I will also go through a few things with you on the day..
