p.1 #1 · Sold: (UK) Canon 1DMark2 and 70-200 2.8L - Price Drop
Hi all,
a couple of years ago i started my foray into photography with a canon eos 300d purchased with the sole intention of taking photos of my kids. This hobby of mine developed into an addiction of a more serious nature. I went from shooting my kids to concerts, to band photos, to editorial and sports photography and eventually a calender shoot with Barnardos.
Along this time my gear also evolved from a 300d (which i still have) and a kit lens to 20D to current 1Dmark2, along the lines i had opportunities to play with 30D, 5D and the 1Dsmark1.
as time has changed so have my needs kind of evolved, and this if forcing me to sell some of my beloved equipment, not through choice though.
Hence i feel it is time to find a new home for my
Canon EOS 1DMark2 and 70-200 F2.8 L (nonIS).
Both are in very very good shape without scratches and come with all original accessories and boxes except the software for the 1Dmark2.
I have used the 1DMark2 to shoot editorial and sports stuff mostly and it is low actuations however i am not sure the exact shutter count but if someone can help me access some software i can find it out.
i have uploaded the pictures of the equipment on flickr and the url is: flickr
Some examples of the photos shot with the combination are at: (warning high res images - they are straight out of the camera i.e. not processed)
also just to show that this is a real sale with real stuff to calm any fears, i have included the following three pics which show the equipment on todays newspaper (date visible, it is Guardian UK, along with my username).
Just to recap:
1. Camera is practically in mint conditoin bar the usual scuff on the hotshoe due to flash/speed light mounting
2. Camera comes in original box, 2 batteries, DC Coupler and other accessories bar the software
3. Lens is practically also mint and with box and pouch
5. No marks on front or rear element
If you want to have a look at the equipment i am based in Glasgow and can be contacted on my mobile:07838169095, or email:[email protected] to arrange a visit or if any queries need answered. also equipment can be collected in person as well.
Please make me a reasonable offer, i want to sell the equipment but i am not desperate for cash, so reasonable offers only please, on mobile or the email:[email protected]
I am ideally looking for the following but i am open to offers:
Camera £1475
Lens £700
+P&P, if paypal is used then split the fees, other wise cash.
Kind Regards,
Zeeshan Kazmi

Hi Stuart,
I have fixed the flickr broken link and uploaded right pics for samples which were taken by the lens/camera combination, they are not processed at all hence have got the exif intact which you can see.
..how many shots has it taken ..
I have downloaded a free shutter count software which shows that the sutter count is 47K approx which keeping in mind the shutter life of 150K is still quite a long way to go.
It was bought originally be someone else whom i know and was passed down to me, hence I can confirm that it is more than a year old and does not have the original manufacturer warranty.
