Canon EOS Rebel T4i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens + extras - Amazon $783 FS

Quote from ranjanrocks : dammit! Bit this one with 55-250 and memory card.....i already have the t3i with 18-55+ 55-250 I need to find a way to sell my Canon t3i with 18-55+55-250+16gb memory card, what is the best way to sell them as a bundle and what is a fair price i can expect for that bundle? I would want to avoid ebay due to the high fees and any possible scams by the buyer.....craigslist is my only option? hmmm

I sold a t3i on ebay about a month ago with the18-55mm kit, but it was brand new. I sold it for $550. I typically wait till ebay has their free listing and no FVF to list my items, but you still have to pay PayPal fees.
You can also try selling on Amazon, the fees are less but you'll be targeting a small audience.

I so want this! Arg Slickdeals! No money, but need camera for work.

thanks! i do see frequent emails from ebay to list for free.

I have the following items to sell now

-T3i with 18-55 lens (lightly used in mint condition)
- Brand new 55-250mm lens
-Brand new 50mm f 1.8 lens
-Brand new 16gb sandisk memory card
-Lens cleaning kit

I am thinking $375 for the lens kit, $80 for 50mm and $150 for 55-250, $10 misc

which totals to about $615, if i can make about $600 i would still be happy....

Any Sd'ers interested can ping me too

Awesome, if anyone recalls the Best Buy GC deal around Dec. I was able to check out using Best Buy Gift Cards for several $25 Amazon Kindle Cards (Found in the PC Section x8).
One cashier said there was a limit of 5. So I went to another associate and rang up 3 separate purchases just in case of an error.

I stacked the GC purchases with some American Express Prepaid Cards (which Amazon doesnt let you enter in multiples) of and I was able to get rid of all those for good purpose. =)

In total a nice $200 credit, coupled with a buddy living in a tax free state that's another $70 saved.
And on top of this 2% amazon rewards comes to something like $15

Patience for this deal has left me with a grin from ear to ear. Thanks OP repped on the good find.

You should get more than $375 for the T3i kit ... If you list it right. I also sold my old Canon Xsi for $350 right around Christmas.
Remember the Eye is the gate to the mind, so clean the camera up nicely and post a lot of photos. A nice detailed write up too will let potential buyers know that the equipment was cared for buy a knowledgable owner. A brief write-up and a stock photo says "I'm hard up for cash and I'm not going to say too much about this item because I stole it"
Good luck.

great sharing, i love Canon cameras very much, especially SLR.

I got a Nikon digital camera last week at Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B7N9B...M7RKFCY0N8.
I prefer Built-In Wi-Fi at first. But now....Am I stupid?

That Nikon is a point & shoot camera type. It's more portable as you can carry it in a pocket.
This Canon is bigger but takes better pictures. Good entry level camera if you're serious about learning photography.
Only you can decide what your needs are.

sniperruff and AkumaX, thank you for the replies.

I'm so confused now. The lenses I see that have been offered with the T4i have been the regular 18-55mm IS, 18-135mm STM, 40mm STM pancake, 55-250mm IS. I have a 50mm f1.8 II already.

I'd probably doing some video of the places that I travel to. I thought the zoom function would be beneficial in this situation. I want to be able to take pictures in a low light situation, but don't mind buying a cheap flash. Which is the most versatile lens for my budget as I don't think I will be switching in and out of the lenses a lot? I don't want to spend more than $1,000 for the camera and lens(es).

Finally pulled the trigger. Oh Slick Deals... Thanks OP!

Not a bad deal. Still debating if I should order one.

AT & T Universal Card has 5x point for shopping. Not sure if purchase from Amazon qualifies.

I'll borrow what someone said in another thread (which I think I've read somewhere else) - what do you want to do that your current kit won't let you do?

I'd begin by thinking under what conditions would you be travelling, and what kind of pictures you take.

Take me for example - I like taking pictures around the city (outdoors), museums (indoors), and plants/animals at the park (telephoto), friends' weddings (indoors).

It makes sense for me to have a somewhat wide lens that's also fast, something like the Canon 35mm f2. It will let me take landscape shots or indoors, so that covers 3 of my needs. The 55-250mm IS I find to be a blessing because it's so cheap, compact, and has a very good IS so I can take handheld pictures of birds in the park.

From what I understand, STM lenses focus more quietly and it's something that's nice to have although not a necessity for casual family videos. I think your 18-135mm has that area covered.

You mentioned you already have the 50mm f1.8. I'd use that as my low-light specialist and swap that for indoors/night pictures. The 40mm f2.8 is popular but I think it's too similar to the 50mm and would therefore be redundant. Personally I'd choose the 50mm f1.8 over the 40mm f2.8 because it's four 1/3 stops faster. I'd take a somewhat soft picture over a blurry picture any day.

As for flash, you may want to try and see if the 50mm f1.8 does the job. I personally rarely use my 430ex because it's just more things to carry and makes the camera very bulky. Not to mention you can't use the flash in many places.

My suggestion? Stick with the 18-135mm STM since it's a versatile lens (and you value convenience) and keep the 50mm f1.8 when you go indoors. Upgrade when you realize there's something you can't do with your current setup. (Say, a fast telephoto prime)

But whatever you do, don't obsess with the latest and greatest. Just take more pictures, think more about the scene, and when you feel confident, I'd check out Adobe Lightroom (or something similar) if you haven't done so to touch up pictures.

Thank you! I bought. I hope I don't regret buying it today, as in lower price next week or so.

Quote from fd3sgsxr : To bad Amazon start charging tax in CA. So B&H for me
