Shutter Count for D7000???

[rmstudios]

I bought my referb D7k 5 month ago. I have 3600 frames so far. How far do they go before they brake or replacement needed? And how do I know that it is time for service? Thank you.

3,600 frames.... at the rate you're going, it'll be about 17 yrs before you reach what the shutter is rated for.

Wow. Thanks. How often do i have to send my camera for service? I bought it refurbished 5 month ago? thanks

I think 150k is the spec.

No one knows for sure because how well the camera is cared for and the enviormental conditions it is used in has a lot to do with it.

But if you were to visit Nikon USA's web site, it says the D7000:

....... 150,000 cycle-rated shutter system providing reliable operation

Many pros get their camera bodies serviced yearly, but they shoot a lot more. Many pros expect to upgrade a camera body every 3 to 4 years. Pro grade Nikons have 300,000 cycle-rated shutters.

How many shutter actuations were already on it when you got it?

no need to worry friend if you sc just 3600 )

You have a LOT of shutter clicks left. Don't sweat it. At the rate you are shooting you have about 17 years before the shutter gives out.

And its probably gonna go past 150K.

Remember its like a car lol. Some last 10,000 miles and some 1,000,000 miles . ~150,000 is a safe average but you could keep going. Not a bad idea to get your camera serviced, every 1-2 yeas.

Thanks Sparky,

If I am reading that correctly, the guess would be that the '3100 and '5100 have about a half a million clicks life in them, LOL.
