[WTA] Camera's value

RayX — Thu, 24 Jan 2013 10:30:00 +0800

i was thinking of selling my equipment.. can anyone clarify me the value of my equipment?

first item's my 600d body..

no warranty , its about 2 yrs +. SC 33k+ externally i think its okay, some minor bruises(?) on the flash part but there's some scratches on my screen and i lost my eye cup .. i've bumped up the clarity and sharpness in all of these pics..

next is my kit lens , feels like brand new , but i lost my lens cap and used a olympus lens cap on it instead...

and then is my 10-22mm .. the lens i've used the most ,no warranty, 1 1/2 years.. externally looks new , some scratches on the filter holder just that there's alot of dust in it.. i've lost the lens cap and used a third party lens cap

lastly , its my other main lens , a 17-50 non vc tamron , 1 yr old , still have 1 yr warranty .. external looks new , but its dusty inside and theres a misty spot i've circled..

so far both lens iq still okay, i guess..
and do i need to replace both lens cap and eye cup before selling?

Thanks

As the title says , i've been using those cheapo free gift tripods till then , and now , one of its leg is dented badly , so i need a new one . I need a tripod that wld last me for 5-8 years . My budget is sub 1k .
I've been looking at this 2 combos , Manfrotto 055XPROB + 496RC2 head and Giottos MTL 9361B + MH1311-652 . I mainly do landscape photography and sometimes potrait . so for the fact that the tripod could reach
low angle is important for me . Could anyone recommend me to get which one and where to get them (i live in klang area and can drive to kl / pj area)? i need to make up my mind by tmr .

Thanks for the help in advance
