Digital Camera Price Factors

Digital camera values run the gamut from practically worthless to incredibly valuable. Some high-end DSLR and mirrorless digital cameras can be worth $660 or more. Most point-and-shoot digital cameras like the Nikon Coolpix, Sony Cybershot and Canon PowerShot are worth $1 to $15, though a few models can be worth $20 to $35 to buyback stores.

Digital camera values depend on many factors, including resolution (megapixels), shutter speed, optical zoom and condition. The better these features, the more a given camera is generally worth.

You can expect to get more money for your camera if you have accessories like lenses, batteries, viewfinders, straps and cases. Many lenses are worth $25 to $50, and some can go for $200 or more.

The above prices are for digital cameras in good condition. Expect to get 15-20% less for each downgrade in condition.
