For sale is my much loved Nikon D3200


I have had this for many years now but now selling due to lack of use.


Comes with the original 18-55mm kit lens as well as a 35mm lens (brilliant for close up shots).

Just ask how many click the sensor has...
For me this can be a dealbreaker if it goes over 10 000.

Have a d3200 bought for the children for when we go hiking with over 102.000 clicks now. Still works fine.

Rubbish like this puts me off this forum... DSLR cameras, most are good for 500000, that's half a million for those who can't compute, shutter actuations. I've been a pro photographer for 30 years and reading camera threads on here makes me cringe.

Don't concern yourself with mega pixels or crop factors. Get over to somewhere like London camera exchange, wex anywhere that specialises in secondhand camera sales. Somewhere that will offer a warranty for peice of mind and get hands on. Tell the guys your criteria and take it from there. Go listen to a camera specialist rather than a random Joe off the Internet.

I'm not arguing that a sensor can't handle 500000 clicks. I just want the best deal. So, less than 10000 clicks at reduced price. Otherwise, I buy new kit.

My rule of thumb is 10000 clicks because than it's nearly new and you can score a great deal!

Mate, the sensor can handle millions. It's the mechanical shutter that can fail. So 1st correction. And I used to shoot weddings. 10000 would be 2 weddings LOL. So my pair of 6k cameras would be in the bin according to you, or dirt cheap borderline worthless. Matey, I would seriously revise where you get your info from. Or that spade and hole you're digging is going to be on overtime "kid.". In fact, go find me a camera with less than 10000 actuations on it at this bargain price you dream of.

5000 shots per wedding? Are they getting an album or a flip book?

If you are a professional photographer then I can see how frustrating this can be, perhaps you should avoid camera threads, if after that you find you are still reading rubbish then maybe the forum isn't for you?
As for 'kid' I think that should read as 'kit' . An easy mistake that people make when posting.

Out of 5k shots I'd be looking at presenting around 500 after a cull. And, agreed forum's really aren't for me...

So the ideal lens with no crop would be 50mm?
I know 70mm is best for natural, portrait pictures, but for pictures holding a fish maybe 50mm

Yeah. Imo 50 on a full frame sensor is prefect for trophy shots.

A 24mm will make the fish look ridiculously big wouldn't it?

If it's not a full frame no 250d isn't a full frame
Are you sure?
