36 bodies · 6 makers · DSLR and mirrorless
Last generation's pro cameras still shoot beautifully and cost far less than new. Here's which bodies to buy and how to tell how many shots they have left.
Every time pros and keen amateurs move to a new body, their old one goes up for sale, and there are thousands on eBay. The catch is wear you can’t see in a photo. Each page covers one body with its story, the shutter life its maker rates it for, how to read its shutter count, its known faults and the eBay listings we’d buy.
