I’m selling my old Canon gear as I’ve upgraded my camera. I’ll take £1,300 if everything is purchased together (£190 saving on individual items). Prices listed do not include shipping. For an idea of shipping costs, use the weights for each item below in the Royal Mail or Parcelforce price finders. If you’re based in the UK, I’m happy for items to be collected (central London), or if purchasing everything, I’ll travel up to 1 hour by train from London to meet with the purchaser (train fare will substitute for postage). Preferred methods of payment are bank transfer or Paypal.

Housing shows signs of cosmetic corrosion to push button externals, minor scratching to the polycarbonate and material wear to the control for the circular dial on the back of the camera (see photo).I have got around the latter issue by affixing double-sided tape to the control and replacing this as necessary. Housing TTL circuitry is in full working order (at least as tested with my own DS-50 and DS-51 strobes).

Unfortunately I didn't write down the serial numbers before sending them off. I assumed they were part of the dodgy lot because they didn't work.

I had exactly the same issue, but only when trying to use TTL. After someone suggested shooting in manual at all times the red/green flashing went away and the strobes would last for a few dives (they were generally fine for 3 or 4 dives per day). It didn't solve the defect, but at least I could continue shooting. I was told that the strobes needed a firmware update and am currently waiting for them to come back from S&S.

I'm by no means experienced, but I've always figured I should try to do my best with whatever equipment I had with me at the time. When I last went diving my fisheye port hadn't arrived so the best I had for wide angle was the 12-50mm. Sure there are some limitations, but I still managed a few images that I thought came out ok. That I could also take some photos of smaller creatures was an added bonus.
