FAQ

What is shutter count and why does it matter?

Shutter count is how many times the camera has clicked. Consumer DSLRs are rated for 100,000–150,000 clicks. A used DSLR with under 30,000 clicks is excellent; above 80,000 is high-risk.

How do I check for fungus in a used camera lens?

Shine a torch through the lens from the back while looking at the front element. Fungus appears as white spider-web or cotton-like patterns. Reject any lens with visible fungus — it spreads and ruins the glass.

What's a fair price for used Canon 200D in Bangladesh?

A Canon 200D with kit lens (under 20k shutter count, no fungus) sells for ৳32,000–৳40,000 on Resale.bd in 2026.
