Dear all, I am about to purchase a 5D MK iii and have come across 2 units.
1) Has 55K shutter releases but has some abrasion marks as well as what appears to be a dink on the top mode dial, a few scratches in the paint and general wear and tear on the body. The joystick cover is missing too. Its being sold by a shop and comes with 30 day money back.
2) Has minor cosmetic wear and tear marks on the body and a shutter count of 200,000 and is a private sale that has paypal buyer protection.
Option 1 is £150 more expensive.
Which would you go for of the 2 ?
The better condition unit with the high shutter count or the cosmetically inferior with missing joystick and only 55K releases ?
Many thanks
