[QUOTE="Brian, post: 256806, member: 17621"] With Digital cameras, getting a return privilege and a warranty is much more important than back in film days. Most cameras off of Ebay from individuals do not have a warranty. KEH cameras have both a warranty and return privilege. Getting a refurbished camera from them is low-risk. Buying new generally gives a longer Warranty, but with new cameras- not always meaning without trouble. You can read some of people's experience on this forum with regard to buying new. As KEH has their own repair center, you can also inquire about buying an extended warranty. Again- just a thought. I have been buying equipment from them since about 1990. Never had to return an item. The one Digital camera that I bought from them was a Nikon Coolpix 950 that I converted to Infrared. Worked fine, although I did void the warranty when opening it up and taking the IR filter off the sensor. ALSO: I have been buying from Bill Cameta since the early 90s, bought my EPL1 there, and met a lot of their people at a camera show last year. They are a pure pleasure to deal with! They were clearing out "older stuff", and for me it was a field day. Got one of those, "For YOU Everything is $5". Walked away with a lot of stuff. AND- as with any camera, always have Two of them for important events such as people's wedding. Even if you are on a budget, pick up a D50, keep the P90, have Something. As soon as you can turn the money around into equipment, buy a Duplicate body of your main shooter, or an upgrade to it that is compatible with the battery type and memory card. [/QUOTE]
