We offer you to go through a simple grading process so we can estimate a value for your current device.

STEP 1

Identify your device

Indetifying the model of your camera is relatively easy. It should say the model on the front or back of it (sometimes on the bottom sticker). Please what kind of lens and accessories come with your camera or if it is body-only. Lenses can have long names but if it is a stock lens included with your camera we can surely identify it just by the mm value (for example 18-55mm). If you purchased some specialized lense that isn't part of a factory bundle for the camera then we will need more description.

Let’s Make a Deal

Camera Prep You Do at Home the Night Before

Most of what decides a camera offer is settled before you leave the house. A body with a flat battery, a card full of last summer's frames and a lens nobody has looked through in two years takes far longer to assess than the same gear laid out and checked the evening before. None of it is difficult work: an hour at the kitchen table with a microfiber cloth, a lamp and a laptop.


Five things to do the evening before you bring your camera in:

  • Put the battery on the charger overnight, and the spare with it. A body that wakes up full lets the shutter count, firmware version and both card slots be read in one sitting, instead of stalling on a pack with two bars left.
  • Pull the actuation number yourself the night before. Most Canon, Nikon and Sony bodies write it into the EXIF of the last frame shot, and free desktop readers show it in seconds. Arriving already knowing the figure removes the biggest unknown.
  • Hold every lens up to a lamp and look through it from the rear element. Haze across the middle, fungus webbing at the edges and oil creeping onto the aperture blades all show up this way, and all of them move the number.
  • Copy your photos to a laptop, then format the SD or CFexpress card in the camera itself rather than on the computer. Sign the body out of its phone app and Wi-Fi pairing and reset the menus, so nothing personal travels with it.
  • Lay the whole kit on a towel and rebuild it: body cap, rear lens caps, hoods, strap, the 18-55mm that came in the box, GoPro housings and mounts. Whatever stays in a drawer at home cannot be counted in an offer.

Do that much at the kitchen table and the visit itself is short. Testing is hands-on and happens in front of you, so every unknown you have already cleared is time the conversation spends on the number instead. If you would rather not carry a full bag across town on a guess, stand the bodies and lens barrels under a desk lamp that same evening with the model names facing you, shoot a few clear photos and send them over by text or WhatsApp for a preliminary estimate.

The Cameras That Carry Value, and the Ones That Only Look Like It

The bag that looks most impressive is often not the one carrying the number. A 2009 DSLR with a battery grip reads as serious kit, yet it sits on an aging APS-C sensor and a mount fewer photographers still buy into. A fast prime in the side pocket can outprice the body it was mounted on.

  • Current mirrorless mounts - Sony E, Canon RF and Nikon Z bodies hold up; photographers are still buying into them.
  • Fast glass - a 24-70mm f/2.8 or 50mm f/1.4 ages slower than the sensor behind it.
  • Kit zooms - the 18-55mm from the box prices modestly, but still belongs in the bag.
  • Actuations - two identical model numbers can sit far apart on shutter count alone.
  • Action cams - a GoPro with its housing and mounts is not the same item as a bare one.

Bring the pieces you assume are worthless: teleconverters, a mirror lens, a manual prime on a dead-metered body.

Bringing In a Whole Collection at Once

A closet clear-out or a retired studio means more gear than one quick check covers, so an evening of sorting pays off. A dozen mixed pieces priced one by one takes bench time; the same dozen in labelled piles moves fast.

  • Sort by mount, not by size - Canon EF and RF in one pile, Nikon F and Z in another, then Sony E and Micro Four Thirds. Adapters go with the pile they fit.
  • Marry bodies to packs - LP-E6 and EN-EL15 cells look alike in a drawer but do not swap. Tape each one to its body.
  • Keep the odd bin - speedlights, ND and polarizing filters, remote releases and tripod plates get looked at separately.
  • Smart and security cameras - base stations, mounts and power adapters keep a set complete.

It comes back piece by piece, so a collection is never all or nothing: sell the bodies, keep the lens you still shoot, or take trade credit.
