![]() I'm not sure there's any evidence for that, but I'm starting to think there's something to it. Some people actually like high mileage cameras, because they think that if it made it over 200K it's more likely to go really long. But the thing is, if you get it replaced before it fails, there's no saying your camera didn't have a shutter that would've gone to 500K, and they'd replace it with one that'll die at 80K. ![]() But yeah, sometimes shutters will go well past the rating, sometimes they'll die early. And I'm pretty sure that varies by region. SOMEtimes if you're well under the rating, I've heard of Canon USA replacing shutters for free even if it's not technically under warrantee, but they're not obligated to, and they often won't. ![]() That rating isn't a guarantee, and it really doesn't make sense to me. (Compare that to the 5d2, which had a 150K rating: om …rlife/canon_eos5dmkii.htm ) The shutter life database is sometimes helpful, but it actually paints a pretty bleak picture for the 7d2: om …fe/canon_eos_7d_mk_ii.htm I've put another 10K on it since then, and never a hiccup. I'm in a similar boat- I think mine was ~226,000 when I bought it in January. ![]()
