The fewer photos you take, the higher price you can set. If you are going to sell your camera, a shutter counter will help you estimate its possible cost. Generally, cheap Canon cameras have about 100,000-200,000 shutter releases, while some advanced models can have up to 400,000 actuations. This allows you to understand the condition of your camera and predict failures. It shows how many shutter actuations your camera has (more simply, the number of photos that your camera has taken). To find out this parameter, you need to use a Canon shutter count. Click this link to read more.Each owner of a Canon device should know about a potential life of a camera.

Now appox 4 years before i need to worry, though I know my shutter may last long after 100,000.or quit before that. But this makes me very happy to learn, now I can expect my 60D to get twice as much mileage as I had figured. I just re-did it on my calculator and came up with the same thing you did. Though I did just throw the figures togather up in my head. Golly gee Obiwan, I don't know what was in the milk I had that night i posted that, but yeah, that must be some kinda new math i figured with.you're correct Man, I have no idea how I was off that far. That puts me on track to reach 100,000 shutter counts within 2 years.'ĥ652 divide by 3 to get monthly = 1884. My shutter count life expectancy is 100,000. Only had my 60D for 3 months, I'm using up shutter counts fast. I'm doing just what you told me to do Bob, I go out everyday.least almost everyday, and wrote: But as you say, the reason I'm into photography is to shoot pics and learn. I'm starting now to be more objective in the shots I take, and of corase that means i'm taking less shots on each outing. I use it mostly for straightning pics I take on the water and it's very useful for those. The cropping tool is different from any other crop tool I've used. I struggle cropping pics and enlarging them. There's still features and ajustments I have'nt learned to use like HDR. Yep, many Pics I would normally delete are saved through DPP. I'm starting to keep even more, that I use to delete because of Post Ed. I'm just getting above the 1/2 way point of more keeper's, than throw aways. No matter how well I take my shots there's always a few I don't like for 1 reason or another. The 3 day Jazz Fest, among some others are keepers, though I still deleted many of the bad ones. I gotta admit, most of them I deleted, although I have kept a small amount as keepers. trying different adjustments in my camera. Then shots to test different lens, lighting, different situations, and trying new things.

Alot of shots were at 1st just practice getting to know and getting the feel of the camera. But I have taken shots I won't be shooting as much anymore, as I get better.

I would'nt say I take shots thoughtlessly, just banging away. If, after a shoot, you find yourself wishing you'd taken more shots, the fact that your shutter may last a little longer will be small consolation. So if you have time to process what you take, and you have a sensible 'keeper' ratio, you're probably better off not messing with what works. Even if shutter life weren't a consideration, a large volume of images is a lot more work to process.īut the reason you own a camera is to take pictures. There's always a drawback to just thoughtlessly banging away.
