Hello all,
I'm in the midst of simplifying my camera gear in hopes of getting one camera that does video as well as it does stills.
I currently own the following:
Sony NX80 camcorder
Canon XC10 camcorder
Canon EOS M6 Mk II with EF-M 18-150 and 11-22 lenses.
I bought the NX80 last summer (brand new) and found it was too much camera for my needs. I also bought the XC10 used and found I didn't like it that much. I like the M6, but don't care for the 4K video it produces, and it seems like Canon are going to be discontinuing EF-M lenses and EOS-M series cameras soon.
I did try to get a trade-in value for all this from a retailer, but what they offered was insulting and disrespectful - like they wanted to steal my stuff while still making big profits on what I was interested in trading for.
I won't try to sell my stuff on eBay. Their listing fees are extortionate and if you list but your item doesn't sell, you lose money. Plus, eBay are flooded with listings for Canon EOS M6 and M6 Mark II cameras, so I'd likely not be able to sell my M6 camera and lenses without practically giving them away. And forget selling on Facebook - tons of tire-kickers, losers who expect you to give your stuff away for nothing, or people who have no intention of buying anything but use the buy and sell feature to try and harvest your personal details like home address, email address and phone number.
So what could I buy to simplify things and be reasonably future-proof? Without losing my shirt on what I've bought? And give me decent stills and quality?
