Nikon D3, priced to move.

[jamesbjenkins]

I'm upgrading to a couple of new bodies, so this D3 needs a new home. I am extremely anal about taking care of my gear, and this D3 has been stored inside of a padded bag and never dropped. There are no noticeable scratches, cracks or breaks anywhere other than the minor rubber wear from normal use.

Functionally, the camera is a 10/10. I've never had any issues with it working properly. The sensor was recently cleaned and everything works well. The only possible concern would be that one of the 1/4" screw next to the serial number somehow wiggled itself out at some point (see picture). I've never replaced it because it doesn't affect the operation of the camera one bit.

Cosmetically, the camera is in excellent condition. With the exception of a couple of hairline scratches next to the hotshoe attachment, everything is excellent. The LCD screens are flawless, and have had protective films on them from day 1.

The shutter count is ~105k.

Camera comes with the original box, the Nikon MH-22 dual charger and 1 EN-EL4a battery with plenty of life left on it. Please note, the camera does not include the Hoodman eyepiece.

Price is $1850 which includes shipping. PayPal + 3% ($55.50).

Thanks for looking!

Good luck. You might want to try fredmiranda or ebay, seems a lot of the buying/selling here was diminished in the years

Thanks! It's on FM as well. The posting here is just in case. I'm not expecting anything to come from the crowd here.

Now if I were selling a D3100 with a kit lens... these kids would be all over it.

 

[jamesbjenkins]

Bump.

Everyone starts somewhere! And some of us don't have a large budget at this point, That shouldn't stop a passion, Maybe you should read the snob forum post

well of course a d3100 and kit lens would sell faster, its only about 350 bucks. Easier to part with vs. 2 grand. Not a very good analogy.

Isn't 2 grand ish kinda high for 100K shutter count? That would be my only concern, if I was even in the market. lol

Not when it's rated to 300k. It's reasonably priced.

Guys, I was only making a joke about the ratio of newbies on this forum to those who would be able to make use of a pro camera like a D3. No snobbery intended. Don't get your panties all bunched up.

Now, somebody buy this thing! I can't buy a D800 until this thing leaves.

Pleeeez?
