I'm in the market for a DSLR, and have quite a limited budget. I have seen quite a few used 10d's on ebay for reasonable prices (around £400), and they look tempting. On the other hand, used D70s go for around the same price.
Comparing these cameras, which has better noise performance, and do they stand up to the modern cameras quite well?
What things should I look out for when buying a used SLR? What are the shutter life expentancies of these models?
I suppose I could spend another £200 and get a new 350d, but I prefer the build and size of the 10d. However, would you recommend I ignore this and get the 350d? How does noise/image quality and speed of the 10d/D70 compare with the 350d?
Many thanks. :-)
EDIT: Forgot to add: how do the viewfinders of these cameras compare? By the way, I where glasses, so do I need a large eyepoint?
Also, feel free to recommend any other budget or used DSLRs in my limited budget, as I have no current lenses.
