Shutter replacement cost for a D7000.

[480sparky]

Anyone know the cost of replacing the shutter on a D7000? Mine took a dump this morning...... At only 23,000 situations.

And two days over the warranty I'm guessing? That sucks... 32" Hg worth. When I priced it out for a D70 (six or seven years ago) it was ~$350 through Nikon Canada.

Really? So soon? Did you drop it? I've read it's about 200 bucks.

.....kinda wondered that myself as i'm coming up on 35,000 in just about 1 year.I was hoping when it was rated to 150,000 that it would easily surpass that.......

buddy just did his d90. it was 200. i'd imagine the d7000 to be similar. i'll second the wanting to know more details... the shutter count seems really low for this failure.

Though the shutter is rated for some number by model, it's only a rating, and not a guarantee.

Being mechanical and pretty delicate (the curtains in particular) it's amazing they last as long as they do.

That sucks, Sparky! Good luck with it!

I just checked my shutter odometer. If I'm not mistaken, the count on this final image is 26,550. I'm on my mobile right now, so could anyone double-check me?

Here's the damage (no battery is in the camera..... This is NOT a mirror up for cleaning job):

I doubt you'dbe happy with a car that dies at 27,000 miles.

I tried myshuttercount.com and camerashuttercount.com and neither of them gave me anything at all.

Maybe the metadata isn't all there. I'm on my mobile as I have no internet access for the computer right now. I have to edit and post with the phone. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to a wireless access point.

That really sucks...sorry to hear about it...I also can't find the shutter count in the raw EXIF data either.

 

[Stradawhovious]

I just crested 29k with mine. I hope for my sake yours is an excpetion. Sorry about your luck on this one! I'd be miffed.

My condolences, but it a piece of mass produced consumer electronics.
