    As everyone else said: yes, but only if I’m going to save 25% or more. Otherwise I’ll buy new. Most OE warranties aren’t transferrable and I would rather have the coverage if all I’m getting used is a small discount.

    IMO, the OG A9 is a steal right now at $1,200 - $1,500 on MPB.

    If you’re just getting started, or are on a budget, a used DSLR like a D7x00 and some older glass is an excellent starting point.

    All the great photos of the past were taken on old gear. There’s nothing preventing a good example from continuing to take good photos today.
