| How much for a 2nd hand Canon EOS 400D? I've been offered a deal on a used Canon 400D but I don't know if its any good. Its about 8 months old, with original carp canon 18-55 lens, 2gb CF card and a Tamron 55-200mm f4-5.6 zoom lens all for £360. So I'm paying the current new price on the body and carp lens but getting the card (£15) and Lens (£150) on top. Any good?

| Re: How much for a 2nd hand Canon EOS 400D? Think you summed it up perfectly. Depends if you want the extra lens or not. I just upgraded my 350D to a 40D at Jessops and haggled £50 of the price of it and a grip, so perhaps you can buy new and squeeze the vendor for say a free 2gb card or some such.

| Re: How much for a 2nd hand Canon EOS 400D? I've just corrected the zoom lens info  Having seen the difference between my compact camera and 400D photos of the same things, the picture quality is so much better and I'll want the zoom lens. that's what makes the deal tempting. Adding a lens to the new camera will add another £100 at least

 Not a rip-off but not the bargain I thought it was. I can wait. He's also tempting me with a discounted 'everyday' lens Canon EF-S 17-85mm f4-5.6 IS USM at UK Camera Price Buster but I think the wife would have a fit - she prefers my hobbies to be cheap.

| Re: How much for a 2nd hand Canon EOS 400D? Check out 7dayshop.com - Online shopping made easy !, also Canon doing cashback deals, I just got a 40D Canon UK - Promotions Funny thing is that 7dayshop only started promoting this after I brought it to their attention.
