What condition is the camera in?
Every camera that leaves Camera Market goes through a 28-point inspection protocol: shutter condition, autofocus accuracy, sensor integrity, seal tightness, electronic viewfinder calibration, battery health, and eight further tests on connectivity and firmware.
The specific cosmetic condition (marks, scratches, signs of use) is documented in the actual photographs and in the technical table on the product page. We do not use catalogue images.

How long does shipping take?
Standard shipping to the EU in 4–5 business days with tracking number. For mainland Spain, express 24–48 h option available at checkout.
Technical packaging with custom-cut foam and tamper-evident seals. Transit insurance included.
Is it suitable for beginners?
Yes, without reservation. It has full automatic modes and eye-detection autofocus that works practically by itself, so you can start taking professional photos from day one.
When you grow, the manual controls and customisation curve are exactly what you would expect from a professional body. It is a camera you can learn with for years.
Why buy refurbished?
For three honest reasons: price (between 20 and 40% below new on high-end models), sustainability (keeping a body in circulation avoids manufacturing a new one and all its waste), and transparency: every unit has its own serial number, visible shutter count and inspection date.
Market depreciation does not affect optical or electronic performance. A well-kept, inspected item performs exactly like a new one.
