Evening all,
This is not in any way meant to raise any arguments or anything like that. Apologies if I have missed another thread on this someone, I did have a little look around before creating this one.
The topic came about a few months ago when myself and a few friends were sat having some tea together and discussing all things photography. Two of us use 5dmk3's and the other has an Olympus mirror less camera.
We were all kind of talking about at what stage, if at all, will the DSLR die? At what stage might it be a good idea to trade it in and try and get a good amount of money back for it to then buy into a mirror less system if we thought the DSLR was going.
Or alternatively, if we think the DSLR will be will be around for many years to come yet and the kit will hold its value. To give an idea, both myself and my friend have 5dmk3's and Canon L glass which we have always, if we were getting new lenses or something, sold older ones and got good money back for them. Presumably if the DSLR was dying, the prices for said equipment would also plummet selling second hand?
I hope this all makes sense, I feel a bit like I am struggling to say what I mean this evening and just feel very tired and have a bit of brain fog.
I would love to know what your opinions are and if any of you have jumped ship or indeed stuck with the DSLR.
Thanks.
