I was wondering out of pure idle curiousity, how many clicks on your single shutter you have?
I'll start off, about 15,000 on a XTI. The camera broke before the shutter.
The most I have ever heard of was a whopping 4,000,000 on a 40D!!!!! Now thats a lot of pictures!!!! Here is the link http://www.olegkikin.com/shutterlife/canon_eos40d.htm.
I have about 20,000 on my 5DII and about 30,000 on my 40D
Cool, keep on posting.
After a little more than one year of use my little 40d is at 38,749 clicks.
About 28,000 on my 5DII.
I have about 70,000 on my 1DIIN.
4,000,000 is a lot of pictures. How much would that cost if it was film? Who says digital is expensive?
Hmm.. I bought my 20D four years old, used on ebay. So I have no record of that usage.
But in less than a year of my owning it, I've replaced the "guts" of the camera due to an incident with a 250V flash (before I knew about the 6V EOS limit!). I think the shuter box was replaced in that repair.
Regardless, in less than a year, I've gone through the image numbering cycle once. Currently I'm on 5630, so that adds up to around 15,6309(ish) in my owning the camera.
Interesting thread idea.

Great. I love odd threads. :)
Jon Ruyle: 4,000,000 is a lot of pictures. How much would that cost if it was film? Who says digital is expensive?
I had someone question me on the cost of my first DSLR (i.e. they thought it was expensive). When I told them I took over 2200 photographs on a vacation immediately following the purchase and what it would have cost to buy and develop that much film they instantly decided it was worth it.
4,000,000 X .50 cents = $2,000,000!!!!
I've got 26,092 on my Xti

I have tried several EXIF readers and have not found one yet to tell me the shutter count on my XTi or 5D. What are you guys using to read yours?

I don't I just go by my file names and keep track of how many times they roll over
well i don't know for sure but i would estimate that the most actuations i've ever seen on a DSLR is probably my aunt- she has a nikon d50 and i think she's probably shot well over 5 million pictures by now. . . it's been maybe 5 years since she got it

WOW, thats a lot of shots. Can you verify that with your Aunt? You could use software to count the number of pictures on her camera.

I could ask her, we're not in contact too often though unfortunately. I do know that she has the D50 and has completely filled about 1.5TB worth of hard drives as well as the hard drive of her computer. . .if somone could find out how many MB per file a D50 might output as jpegs one could crunch the numbers, in the mean time i'll try to get in touch with her and see.
