Details

Our current Nikon D850 SLR cameras and lenses are coming to the end of their natural life so they need to be replaced. We have older digital cameras and lenses that can be used in part exchange. Before beginning the procurement process, we need to find out from suppliers if they will take old cameras in part exchange and how much they will pay for them.
