Hello everybody, my name's RJ. I have a better half who's interested in photography. Never saw myself looking at DSLR's, but here we are. She takes great pictures with her IPhone so hopefully she has a knack for it. Anyhow, I have a set up I'm looking at and I have 2 days to decide on. So, hopefully this isn't improper in an introduction.
I'm looking at a used D7100 with the following:
*SB-910 speedlight flash
*Nikkor 18-105 Vr with hood, cover, case and 67mm polarinzing lens filter
*Sigma dg 70-300 with cover and 58mm polarizing filter
*nikon mh-25 charger
*en-el 15 battery and kastar battery
*Remote
*2 64gb cards
*manfrotto tripod
I haven't seen it yet but I don't want to go into the deal uneducated and I have no idea how to inspect a camera. I've read to check shutter count, for dead pixels, auto focus ability, dust on sensor and viewfinder, lens mount, as well as overall cosmetic condition.
My question is what is a good price on this setup with say, 25k shutter count theoretically? With all else being in good condition. The dude sounds to be a real stand up guy. He's local and seems trustworthy. This is pretty much going to be my old lady's only Christmas present aside from the usual smalls I get her so I want to be sure I get her something to last her a couple years with moderate use. I appreciate the help in advance and hopefully soon she'll be on her for some tips. Y'all take it easy.
