Fortunately for the manufacturers, most photographers don't press the shutter button that many times during the warranty period anyway, so they don't have to back up their claims of how many shutter actuations it can handle. In my experience and from what I have seen from other photographers online, most shutters make or surpass the 100,000 or 150,000 mark without any problem whatsoever, but it seems that few cameras actually make it to the 300,000 shutter actuations even on the cameras that are rated to that number. How many shutter actuations to most photographers actually achieve? Mid and high-end cameras have more durable shutters that are rated up to between 150,000 and 300,000 actuations. Most entry-level DSLR cameras are only rated at 100,000 shutter actuations. First of all, the camera manufacturers publicize the shutter rating of the camera. There are a few things you'll want to know about the life of your shutter. How many shutter actuations do the manufacturers claim? The shutter is hardware in the camera and the firmware won't impact its durability (but seriously… it's time to update). It really makes no difference whether or not you have updated the firmware of the camera.

Here's Aaron's question… “I have a Nikon D3 camera and would really like to know what is the lifetime of its shutter, and i had never updated its firmware.”įirst of all, let's cut out the fluff. It's actually a very good question and the answer will also teach you an easy way to find out how many total times you've pressed the shutter button on your DSLR, which is a handy thing to know for used camera buyers. Custom Multi mode extends that flexibility even more with the ability to freely select the blocks to focus out of the 49 focusing areas.Aaron Mizzi recently sent in a question asking how long the shutter on his DSLR will last before it bites the dust.
