If you're in the market for a camera, lens or accessory, you've probably pondered whether buying second-hand makes sense. Well, a new report by MPB, the online platform for used photography and videography kit, offers some compelling answers. And they go well beyond just saving money.
According to its newly released FY25 Impact Report, MPB recirculated 615,000 digital cameras, lenses and accessories over the last 12 months; up 9% from 564,000 the previous year. But what's perhaps more interesting is what an independent assessment revealed about the broader impact of choosing used over new.
