Certified
Factory's CERTIFIED cameras and lenses have been overhauled or serviced to precise, like-new or near-mint specifications. All our certified items are guaranteed to work optimally after professional repair or CLA.
Excellent
Factory items rated as EXCELLENT are thoroughly tested and inspected with task-specific equipment (shutter speed testers, for example) to ensure they function properly and accurately. Any existing flaws will be documented, but they will not impact typical use.
Good
All items with status GOOD are hand-tested, inspected, and confirmed to be in good working order. These items perform well, but may show signs of use and wear, i.e. they are not in perfect condition. Flaws will be noted, but they will not affect typical use.
Fair
All items marked as FAIR may have flaws that may affect their functionality. Even if the camera or lens doesn’t perform at peak precision, or isn't in prime cosmetic condition, it still functions.
Please note that since FAIR items did not meet our quality control standards, we do not guarantee their performance or condition. Items are sold as-is.
