Choice of camera-how many previous models should you consider?

I am currently researching for a 'training' camera in the USD1,200 to 1,500 range.

I can create a list of these by examination of the major manufacturer websites, which appear to present models that were released within the past 6 months (and those forthcoming).


I think that I do not need the 'newest & shiniest' camera for my purpose. However I am not sure how many previous models I should consider.

In other words, for my training, can I consider a camera that is, say 1 year old, or 2 years old or
3 years old--or even older?

Also, do any of the seniors here have any suggestions as to what the range of projects might include for this training??

Thanks.
 
Five days & 100 views later, still no reply. Not from the film school attendees, or the 'seniors' here, or others. Was there something wrong with the questions? something people did not understand...? I am able to clarify if desired.

Thanks.
