I'm selling my K200D tonight for $350 CAD
It's in mint condition, and some guy from craigslist is coming by to check it out.
Am i making a mistake? Is that too low of a price?

It's just the body, no batteries, no memory card, no warranty or any other accessories.

I want to get a DSLR with video capabilities, that's why im selling the K200D.

What do you guys think!?

Not sure that video is worth reason to sell good camera.

okay that's not the only reason im selling it for, i just want a new camera in general :P

I don't think you'll get much more for a lot more money. If I had the money, I'd keep the K200D and buy glass, glass, glass. And some accessories. And a cooler bag.

$350 seems about right, maybe. How many shutter actuations?

So did you sell it?

I just upgraded my K100D to the K200D and absolutely love it. I'm not sure I understand the desire to have a dslr that does video too. Wouldn't you just get a video camera for that? If that is overkill for your video purposes couldn't you just use a point & shoot or one of those new pocket video cams like a Flip?

I'd opt for new glass too but if you really want a new dslr, then you do what ya gotta do I guess.

In all honesty, I like my K200D better than my K10D (waiting for the flames). Nothing else to say really.
