My friend is looking to buy a FF camera body. He wants to buy one of the followings and need some opinion.
a. Canon 5D Mark II - some minor signs of use, looks clean and comes with basic accessories, i.e. charger, battery and strap. (Priced at US$700 equivalent)
b. Canon 6D - looks very clean and has most of the original accessories. (Priced at US$900)
c. Canon 5D mark III - visible scratches on the rear panel near the LCD and on the LCD glasses and signs of uses elsewhere. Missing mode dial cap. ( Priced at US$1150)
First two cameras have around 20K to 25K shutter actuation and the 5D3 has around 35K.
I haven't had a chance to view the 3 cameras for him but based on his description, I advised him to pick the 6D. The 5DII was good but it's aged and 5DIII seemed to be a bit of abused. I think he prefer the 5D3 but can't make up his mind. He is now shooting with a Rebel 650D.
Just basing on the above limited info what is your opinion ?
Of course, I will share with him this forum and let him decide.
