Hey there,

Selling a Canon 5D mk1 body which is in very good condition boxed with minimal show of use, with no scratches etc. Selling as I do not use it as much as I hoped.

I will consider throwing in a 50mm 1.8 lens if needed.

Looking for offers around the 1.4 mark. Let me know if interested or if you have any questions.

Thanks and Regards

I was wondering the series of the camera...

You can check by looking at the SN number. I think by looking at the third digit of the SN number it will tell you.

1 being the first generation . 2 second , 3 the latest generation..

All the Koreans want the '3' series because of the new LCD screen . thanks !

Good question, the series is based on the first number, mine is in the late 2 series which is about as good as it gets for this price.
The serial numbers beginning with 3 are rare and as far as i'm aware quite a bit more expensive. Not really worth it to be honest.
