Overheard a guy at the camera swap meet say 'if it's digital, just toss it and buy a new one'
He was talking about a Canon 5D Mark II with a shutter error. Said the repair cost would be more than the camera's worth. I get the math, but that attitude is why landfills are full of fixable gear. I pulled a shutter assembly from a parts body for $45 and had it running in an hour. When did we stop valuing the fix? Is it just about the bottom line for everyone now?

Sounds like that guy's wallet is lighter than his brain.
