The camera seems to be in excellent condition, but will get more photos soon to take a look at additional angles of it and if I proceed forward will inspect in person. However, after looking around I found someone who is selling their used x-t20 with the kit lens along with all the accessories that come with it w/ original box, aluminum alloy hand grip quick release plate, a thumb grip, auto focus macro extension tube set, and a red soft metal shutter release button with it for 775.00USD. I can get it brand new between the price of 900USD-1000.00USD. At the very least my D810 and D4 show wear better than my Sony A7RII and RIII do.I was looking at buying a Fujifilm x-t20 w/ a 18-55mm kit lens as my first self owned camera. I'm an event photographer, I wouldn't buy back my own cameras They're in good shape, but they've seen some things. Everything perfectly works like day one.ģ20K sounds like either a sports or photojournalists camera. Today, the camera has clocked just over 300,000 clicks (I shoot birds and sport) and is in excellent condition. On average, I use it one day a week (I only have one day off work a week!). I bought my D850 since it was first available in Australia (late September 2017). I didn't think of the math! It wasn't bought on launch day, it was bought around December 2017 - so even higher shots/day.

I just wanted to know what should be the right price for this kind of body and if anyone bought something with such high count. I can afford a shutter failure and I wouldn't honestly mind if it breaks randomly. The shutter replacement comes out to be $450 as you said. I don't really need 45mp, but D850 is such a stellar camera not just because of all the pixels, so I was interested. I am ok with any camera around $900-950 or less (D810) but since this popped up, my curiosity piqued. Thanks, I was looking at a particular figure like you mentioned. It has apparently spent the life in studio, so it seems to be in good shape but I am not sure. If the previous owner got this camera the first day it was available (8 September 2017 according to Wikipedia), then it would have to have shot ~535 shots per workday since then to get to 320K shutter count. But if beat up, then pass.Īlso, can you afford a shutter failure? Can you afford to have the shutter die at a bad time? Say before/during an important trip or a paid gig? Like others said, if it doesn't show like it has 300k on the clock and you need 45mp camera then go for it. I would keep shopping unless you can get it for $900 or less.

I bought a used D850 with 4K shutter clicks in Nov for $1,900. In a studio on a tripod all the time and it wouldn't bother me as much but if used in the field and beat on no thanks.

It could be falling apart or in decent to OK or better. That is a high shutter count but also consider the life that camera has lived. Just want a good ol' DSLR!įactor in the cost of shutter replacement, (and the hassle of doing so), you'll have your answer. I was looking at D810 or even D750 but this caught my eye. For all you know the camera will still be good for another 320k clicks or it'll break after 1k clicks! Just make sure it's a USA model for repair purposes. It still works flawlessly but its making me twitchy.Ĭall it bad luck but in my experience, things go wrong just when they change owners.Īnyone here who bought D850 with such high shutter actuations and then had to go through shutter replacement.and what would be a good price point for such body?(and also for shutter replacement?)ĭepends how much it's selling for? If the price + the possibility of paying for a shutter replacement is still cheaper than buying minty used, I'd consider it. Looking at one with shutter count of close to 320000.

Whats considered hight shuttercount gh3
