Hey everyone, just got into photography and looking for a decent used camera under $300. I'm new to the city and don't know the best places to check. I've heard about Kijiji and Facebook Marketplace, but any shop recommendations? Also, if anyone's selling a Canon or Nikon DSLR or mirrorless, hit me up. I'm near downtown, can meet up. Thanks!

I appreciate the suggestion, but I'm not sure Kijiji and Facebook Marketplace are the best options here in Ottawa. I've found that prices there are often inflated or equipment is worn out. I'd recommend checking out used camera stores like Henry's or maybe the Camera Store downtown — they sometimes have budget gear with warranties.

Hey, welcome to Ottawa! For under $300, you can definitely find a solid starter camera. I picked up a used Nikon D3300 with a kit lens on Kijiji for $250 last year. Check local camera shops like Henry's or Galaxy Camera too—they sometimes have trade-ins. Also, Facebook Marketplace has good deals if you're patient. Happy shooting!

Hey, welcome to Ottawa! I was in the same boat last year. Kijiji and Marketplace are solid—I grabbed a Nikon D3300 for $250. Also check out Dow's Camera on Bank Street; they sometimes have affordable used gear. Happy shooting!

Hey, welcome to Ottawa! For under $300, I'd check out Henry's on Rideau or their website—they have a used section with warranties. Also, Camera Trading Company in the market is great for deals. Kijiji and FB Marketplace are fine, but you'll get better quality and less hassle at a shop. Good luck!

Hey, I totally get the struggle! I moved here last year and had the same question. Kijiji and FB Marketplace are good, but also check out Henry's used section—they have a decent selection and warranty sometimes. For under $300, look for older Canon Rebels or Nikon D3000 series. Good luck, it's a great city for photography once you find the gear!

Hey, welcome to Ottawa and to photography! Under $300 is totally doable—check out Kijiji and Marketplace like you said, but also hit up Henry's on Bank Street for used gear; they have a solid selection and warranty. If you're okay with older models, a Canon Rebel T3i or Nikon D3100 with a kit lens can often be found around that price. Good luck!

Nice! What kind of photography are you into? For under $300, you might find older DSLRs like a Canon T3i or Nikon D3200 on Kijiji or Marketplace. Have you checked out Henry's used gear in-store? They sometimes have deals. Also, what lenses are you thinking—kit lens or something specific?

Totally get it, starting out can be tricky! Under $300, Kijiji and Marketplace are solid, but also check Henry's in Ottawa—their used section sometimes has deals. I've seen decent Canon Rebels or Nikon D3000s pop up. For lenses, look for a kit lens with the body. Good luck, and welcome to the city!

Yeah, Kijiji and FB Marketplace are solid bets. For under $300, check out the Nikon D3300 or Canon Rebel T5—great starter kits. Also, hit up Vistek on Bank Street for their used gear section; they often have good deals and warranty. Downtown Camera on Sparks is another spot. Happy shooting!

Oh nice, I'm also new to Ottawa and into photography! Under $300, have you checked out Henry's Used section or maybe Vistek? I found a decent Canon Rebel T3i on Kijiji for $250 last month. Do you have a preference for brand or features?

I was in the same boat when I moved here last year. Check out The Camera Exchange on Bank Street—they have a solid used selection and fair prices. Also, keep an eye on Kijiji, but meet up in a public spot. Scored a Nikon D3300 with kit lens for $250 that way.
