Before agreeing on a price or bringing a used camera home, it’s important to check the shutter count. A camera that’s barely been used will have a much longer shutter life expectancy than a camera that a sports photographer uses day in and day out. If you’re planning to purchase a used DSLR camera, this is a very important specification to check.

Sometimes, cameras surpass the expected shutter count and sometimes, they fall short and require a replacement shutter.įortunately, all cameras have a means of determining the count, so you can get a basic idea of how much lifespan remains for your shutter. This is the average expected amount of shutter actuations your camera will most likely deliver before the shutter fails. When shopping for a new camera, you may have noticed a specification called a shutter rating. This number matters because all digital cameras have different shutter life expectancies. Your camera’s shutter count or shutter actuation number is the number of times you’ve physically fired your camera’s mechanical shutter. So, if your digital camera doesn’t spend most of its time on a shelf collecting dust or nestled safely in a camera bag, it’s important to know your shutter count. The age of your camera has less to do with its lifespan than its amount of use. I can't say enough about this Camera body that others have already said, but if you want one powerful tool in your camera bag then this is the one.Unless your digital camera or DSLR camera is brand new, it’s a good idea to periodically check your shutter count.

I cant wait to see the next line of Pro range camera bodies to show up in the line up, since the introduction of the D4, I wonder if a D4x will pop up with 32 mega pixels and frankly I really don't see a need to go to far beyond the 24 the D3x has, I am not into having video in my DSLR's but that is my opinion and don't see the need in this high end of a camera but for those who do, I think a D4xs version might be a good idea then? The controls are pretty much laid out great and if you have had any other Nikon Digital SLR's then navigating the external controls are no real issue, but sub menus are somewhat different then lets say a D200, the D3x just has more of them and choices to make in exposure and metering with to many to list here type of controls that will make you stumble backwards in a cold sweat at first trying to remember what control you just changed and were it was? lol but in no time it's easy to learn sub menus and how quickly they are to pull up. I have had my D3x for just over a year and my D3 since April of 2008 and these two cameras are very well constructed tanks, yes tanks! they are very well constructed and will take some abuse in rigorous shooting conditions, from weddings to mountainous landscape shooting, and from very cold temps to very warm, and haven't had any issues with slow dragging shutters from the cold or electronics failing from heat issues.

with ISO that it falls short in the higher ranges above 600 starts to get pretty noisy in my opinion when trying to shoot natural light night short shutter duration shots, in that my older D3 out performs the D3x in higher ISO non noise issues but sacrifice the mega pixels that the D3x out shines in, if Nikon could have had the same ISO range as the D3 or the D3s has, this review would be much shorter than it is.

As I try to sit down and write a review I find myself asking questions of why I purchased this piece of equipment?, well in a nut shell from starting out in the Digital world with a Nikon D70 to a D200 then D3 and now D3x I find myself with a camera that has pretty much covered all the requirements needed to have in a photographers hands a portable Photo Studio and Lab, coupled to Nikkor Stellar Glass it is a winners combination in a DSLR 35mm format.
