I bought it 2/26/04, have taken less than 8000 pix with it. I have the kit lense, Canon 50 1.8 mark 2 and Sigma 70-300 APO Macro Super(with red ring), extra battery and I will include a SanDisk Extreme 2 Ultra 256 card.

Question. Does anyone know how much a shutter replacement costs after it goes. I have shot 2,000 pics in the last month alone. the 20,000 pics quote scares me a little.
There has been a lot of discussion on this topic (how many click till death) and no real answer. I have 18,000 clicks on mine and there is no sigh of wear anywhere on my camera (or internal that I can see and I looked everywhere. I know one person on this site posted over 50,000 click with the rebel and still going strong.
Don’t buy a camera or get worried about the number of clicks. I think how the camera was cared for plays much more of a part in the cameras life then how many pictures were taken.

How much does shutter replacement cost anyone know?
From my searching about on the web...a film and manual film camera shutter replacement is not too bad, $175 or so. I fend very little info on the digital cameras, but $300 to $600 seems to be the range. Could be not many get replaced, cause if you told me $600 ona 2 or 3 year old dSLR, i'd just go buy a new one wiht mroe MP and more features!
