Acutations on a h3d

<p>That would then be based upon an assumption about the MTBF.<br>

It's something carried over from the 35 mm format based DSLR world, and even there it is rather meaningless.<br>

You're dealing with very expensive (you will have noticed that ;-)) professional gear, that is (or should be) serviced at regular intervals. Shutters are in exchangeable lenses. How long the electronics will last, nobody knows.<br>

So suppose the number would be 26,864. Then what?</p>

<p>Brian, for one reason, the back is removable, so actuations are only recorded by and for the all electronic back, and not the camera body, unlike a DSLR. The body could have 50,000 actuations, and the digital back only 1000. The back isn't mechanical. Hasselblad writes the actuation number to the EXIF data, and that could be read by any number of EXIF readers, like Opanda, etc.</p>
