Quote:of course you understand those are not all landscape photos, many are covered events and there are several weddings a full wedding is at least 2000-3000 shots.... so what you are actually doing with all these shots then?

I still need to sort out the photos from my honeymoon trip from 2007!
Yes. I shoot more than I can post-process (the problem not being really in image post-processing, that's fine, but in culling, tagging, archiving). Anyway: that's good for filling rainy days! <_<

You only have to post process images you are actually going to do something with...

That's the problem: culling. Because in some circumstances I shot many variants and it takes time to pick the best one. Post-processing is not a problem, because these variants mostly share the same post-processing settings (so I can work on one and then copy-paste the settings to others).

I've only had 1 shutter ever fail. It was on an Oly Om-G (OMG!). I suspect this was more of a defect driven failure than use.

believe it or not my only shutter failure was on film camera

Since we're at the subject... Any up-to-date tips on how to verify the shutter count on recent cameras? (that Chinese utility doesn't work for me
)

Hum... thanks but neither seems to work with the images from the Canon cameras I have access to (my 1D Mark IV or the wife's 650D). However, I did learn along the way that my wife's old Sony NEX camera had 125514 shutter actuations - and I was wondering why it's so battered.
