Used Photography

Choosing Used Photography Equipment

Buying used photography equipment is a budget-friendly way to hone your skills, especially if you’re saving up for a high-end camera or are just starting out in digital photography. The numerous camera settings and optional attachments let you experiment with the technology and get a feel for which features you'll want next time you upgrade. If you’re making the switch over from a traditional film camera, you'll find used DSLR cameras to be a solid introduction to the digital format without compromising on overall image quality.

Most used items list a condition rating to help you choose the type of photography equipment that fits your needs. For artists and teachers on a budget, moderately and heavily used equipment can lend itself well for test shots and classroom photography projects. As far as looks go, used gear may have minor or noticeable cosmetic wear due to previous use, while other equipment is no longer in its original packaging, yet is still in like-new condition in terms of operation. Select models may have been used for in-store demos, therefore they can't be sold as brand-new products, yet they retain full functionality. In some cases, items may have been cleaned up and repaired, or you can find sellers who offer refurbished cameras with new components, which ensures optimal results.

Used Photography Equipment

Choose from a variety of used cameras for general needs and professional-level projects. Capture vacation memories and casual photos with used point-and-shoot cameras and compact digital models. Mirrorless camera options support a range of interchangeable lenses and are typically lighter in weight compared to DSLRs. If you're in the market for a top-of-the-line option with superior image quality, medium-format secondhand cameras are available at substantial savings compared to new models. Select camera packages come bundled with software, cables, and spare batteries so you can quickly get up and running.

Used Digital Camera Accessories

Extend your photography capabilities with a selection of used and refurbished equipment and accessories. Build up your tool kit with spare lenses for used mirrorless system cameras. Protect, organize, and store cameras and attachments in durable carrying bags and cases. Keep plenty of extra rechargeable batteries, power packs, and memory cards on hand, so you can capture every milestone and perfectly-timed shot. Provide clients with high-quality proofs and ID-ready photos produced with professional scanning and printing equipment.

Used Flashes

Make sure your subjects stand out by properly illuminating photography spaces. Used camera equipment and accessories include on-camera flashes, ring lights, diffusers, and remote-controlled fixtures. You'll also want to stock up on extra connector cables, clips, and mounting brackets that can help you set up complex shots under a variety of lighting conditions.
