And the 30D Sale begins

[xunjas]

Maybe FF will be the main stream, and 1.6 will be budget model???

Some will like 1.6 view for long range....

I am avoiding EF-S lens as I believe FF is the way!!!

Yo, save up for EOS 1Ds MARKIII !!=D

And the sale is getting hotter - never seen so many 30D cams for sale ....
This is the problem with digital technology - digicams, computers all worth hardly anything after a few years.
It wasn't quite like that in the film days.....

PRA imaging here quote AUD$1790 for 40D body. Prices seem to start lower and lower!

That seems cheap...

hmm :think: ur right , time to get that 40D + 70-200 IS USM and cancel that gym membership :devil:

i.e. instead of waking up early go gym ... now can ....wake up early go for shoot !! :thumbsup: .... on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays !! :lovegrin:

If every month go shooting instead of gym, maybe that can save up to $1000 a year. That would go into Lens Fund. Oh did your notice the Nikon D300? Looks like it would affect the price for 40D. Hope to see it down to 1.7k by dec.

Aiyah he has Canon lenses lah. Jumping ship is more expensive unless you have both N and C lenses.

I think this is good news for people looking to upgrade! Go for it guys, and leave your 2nd hand kit for other beginners!

Swell the ranks of the light (and right) side!

you did a search?

haha, but for the price they're going ($1400) and the predicted price of the 40d ($2000), there's not a chance i'm getting a 30d.

also, i'm kind of stumped as to why the 10d is still reselling at $650 or so. seems kind of expensive to me when the 20d is only going for $800-$900.

Now afresh to get over to this camp...

had been looking around for a mint 30D, but price is still quite high, when considering 40D's priced around sgd2k.

Maybe 40D is the only way to go...

Cheers

But I am sure a BMW or a Merc is smoother ride than my old beat up Hyundai.

Of course, if one can afford it, go for it. What I'm saying is that no point chasing after it if one finds problem in catching up. Any way, any models will bring you from one point to the other!

And depending on how you tweak it bro, your Hundai can even beat a Merc/BMW! :bsmilie:

10D silent shutter is holding value like the M3 of Leica
People just seem to love it

go for 40D. u wont regret. get 30D now, u regret when 40D launches. =D

I did a quick count but I just looked and I see a few new posts selling 30D so there are now about 14 units for sale and I think the market seems to be about $1400-1500 including grip. I did not even think about selling my 300D when the following were announced: 20D, 350D, 30D, 400D.... I suppose there is a fear that it may even drop further in a few months time. Well, I think it is not the right time to sell, the price will be low, i.e. if you can find a buyer....

 

[xunjas]

keep the 30D as a spare cam first..
