Pic of what it looks like (Not my actual camera). If you really want pics I can take some and get them up.

Like I said, I maybe used the camera only a few times since I bought it new from best buy a few years ago. So everything is in the box and in EXCELLENT shape.

I’m also throwing in a Lowepro camera bag with the sale.

Asking $140 for everything.  
I’ll take $120 for it now
