<p>In the September issue of Shutterbug magazine, Scott Kelby, in answering a query regarding the "first setting he changed when he received a new camera" replied that with a Canon DSLR, he changed the center button function. He said that "when checking the sharpness is just one click away (rather than three clicks to zoom in, and three to zoom back out, which is a pain), you'll start using it more. On Canon DSLRs, this assignable button is called the "Setting Button" (the one in the center of the Quick Dial).<br> Well, I have gone through the menus on my 6D and although I can find the area for setting the center button, I cannon seem to find a setting for checking sharpness. Realizing that I may be missing his point, I would like for someone to set me straight, perhaps referring to a section of the manual. Thanks in advance.<br> Dan</p>

<p>I purchased a refurbished 6D from Canon about a year ago. Cost was around $1,300 without lens. Turned out that it had about 600 clicks on it and was in perfect shape complete with a one year warranty. It has worked like a dream with absolutely no problems. I have also purchased a couple of refurbished lenses from KEH with similar results. So far, my advice would be as long as the dealer is reputable, you can't go wrong with refurbished quality plus there are significant savings to be had. Go for it.</p>
