Digital Camera Shutter Count

I purchased a refurb D7500 for about half what it cost new. The shutter count was around 200 so basically this was a brand new camera. This is not a small, light camera but it is a good size body for larger and longer lenses. I don't use it for video and I suspect that this would not be an ideal choice for heavy video use. The still images are wonderful - Nikon's color science is superb. Obviously camera manufacturers are moving to mirrorless but for now, you can get basically the same still output in DSLR body for much less money.

Great camera and service. I can always count on B&H!

For all of us who cannot spend the money on the Lecia, Pentax gives us a wonderful Monochrome digital camera. Based on the K3 chassis it is a Monochrome only Pentax K-3 Mark iii. It is an APS-C professional-level camera. With excellent ergonomics that Pentax is known for. Yes everyone is dashing off on mirrorless but the bright, eyeglass-friendly viewfinder is wonderful. With a nice catalog of lenses, this is a black-and-white camera that can be used in any situation. Finally black and white with excellent fine resolution, usable high ISO, and professional grade. The images have fine detail, highlights, and shadows. Easy-to-use menus and settings that address every situation you may encounter. For those who remember all those color filters for black and white are usable to manipulate the the images before tripping the shutter button. Two things to consider. LCD panel does not flip up or rotate. I use a Ref a right angle viewfinder by Pentax. It works well on all the 35mm Pentax cameras and some other brands. It rotates and has a 2x setting which is nice for macro. The other thing I have noticed is the very sensitive shutter button. It has a very sensitive and short motion to trip the shutter. I can highly recommend this camera to anyone who wants to do Monochrome. You will not be disappointed Monochrome is far from a niche place in photography. You see it in many venues. It is not limited now to the conversion of color digital or shooting film. We now have a well thought out Monochrome from Pentax at a more palatable price than Lecia.

This was refurbished by Nikon. It was literally brand new, as the shutter count was ONE. It doesn't get any better than that. It shipped quickly, came in a Nikon Refurbished box (white box), and even came with a free There Legged mount that I'll have to play around with later. The Z50 is a lot of bang for the buck. 11 frames per second, small, compact, but powerful. I also have the D500 which I use for wildlife and paid jobs (dual card slots), but....this Z50 is very similar to the the D500 in capability, image quality, speed, etc. Thank you B&H. I feel like I got a great deal @ $749!

I may have gotten a body that was simply a return. The shutter actuation count was 3 (three), when I checked. My understanding is that Nikon does not reset the counter. Any way, it was a good price when I bought. Of course four months later Nikon dropped the price of new by $400, but that's the way things go.

I added the battery grip to my D850 to increase the shutter count or second and use the same batteries d5

I kick myself on why I didn't buy this earlier. So much easier than either count down or use phone to remote the shutter.

My copy of D7500 came with a shutter count of 0 and looked completely brand new. Fantastic body. Wish it came with the original box and not a white box but that's well worth the discount on this refurbished model.

Makes the R work comfortably shooting vertical and allows for a very large shutter count with the two batteries if you need them. If you plan to shoot a lot with the R I would add this to your body.

I am replacing one of these that I previously purchased that has a weekend lamp tube. The shutter count on my N750 says I shot over 60,000 exposures and well over half must have been with the flash. Although hard to believe, I must face facts, so I bought another one. It always worked well until the end, so I certainly got my money's worth. I'd recommend this flash to anyone looking for something dependable with a relatively high guide number.
