Few of them being sold on Etsy ranging from $700-$1200 CAD

Paypal is a joke.
They gave my money to a KNOWN criminal then refused to do anything about it.
I was just out the money

If it's too good to be true, then it probably is a scam, or there's something seriously wrong with the camera, or it could be stolen. If most of the posts are ranging around $2,700~$3,000 (USD) and there's one that has the camera for half that, then that's a serious red flag, which of course is why you're asking.
As far as what protection PayPal offers, I would refer you to read PayPal's refund policy.

Whether you shop on etsy, ebay, or elsewhere, the best way to make sure you are not being scammed, is to buy from a reputable seller. That means they have had LOTS of sales, and LOTS of positive reviews. If you're wanting to buy a camera from a seller who has hardly any sales, or only a few, then you're taking a chance. Paypal would most likely offer protection as they usually do.
