Okay, I have befitted from this board in the past and have the following to offer up. I talked to Tom a bit about it (he suggested making it some sort of contest, for the fun of it) and I would like to request the following two things:
1) Please do not turn right around and put it up for sale (life happens so do so if you HAVE to).
2) Cover actual shipping charges when you receive it, or a portion thereof if you can afford to do so.
Those two things being said, I have to quote Lethal Weapon:
"...1D MKI that have not used for a while.
Picked it up from a local News Photog and it is in very good shape with a few light scuff marks near the bottom edges and flash mount (but no gouges on it) and a sticky tape residue that can be removed from the front of the flash mount area.
The viewing screen is clean with no marks and the viewfinder was replaced by me when I got it.
Cancount reports about 58K on the shutter (plus the 8 shots I took)
Comes with 2 batteries that hold a decent charge, the charger, DC coupler and camera strap."
He was correct when he said I would love it. So much so that I went and picked up a Mark III and a Ds Mark III, which leaves this lovely gal looking for a forever home.
So...come up with a good reason you should be the one to give the old girl a home, and send me a pm.
(Please note that it will take me a week at most to ship as I am relearning to walk without a cane at the moment. Sorry.)
I also would love the Canon if it's still available. I could really put it to good use and I know it could be a blessing to some of the work I'm doing. Please let me know!
