30D for £600

Psilonaught · 26 Sep 2006 at 17:48

I sold my 350D on fleebay with the intention of buying the 400D, but having thought about it and is the light of the bargains that can be had on the Canon refurb site I decided to bid for a 30D refurb.

Guess I got lucky since i won one for £600 including shipping! And it comes with a one year Canon warantee :cool:

Off to Japan in late Nov with the girlfriend for a well deserved holiday and might have to finally get an L telephoto when i'm over there

i was comparing the 400D in silver to the 30D in a shop today and the silver version is especially toy like compared to the bigger brother.

I guess i will have to used to the weight, especially when using the 24-105

yes I noticed their shop seemed to have closed - I was wanting a new zoom. Can one of you also email me the thread that explains what happened?

thanks

"Clunk" sounding shutter from 30D - normal

I was suprised by the clunky sounding shutter noise it makes - not as snappy sounding as my 350D - is that normal?

It actually sounds very similar to the shutter on my brothers nasty plastic D50 :eek:
