How many shots per year does a typical person use his/her digital camera?
My small 3 MP Panasonic/Lumix digital camera is now 4 years old. I
was surprised to know that I have clicked over 50,000 photos with it. My newer Samsung digimax i5 is only 5 months old, and I already used it over 3000 shots. I am not a commercial or professional, and not even an enthusiast photographer. Despite of a lot opinions about the Samsung camera as being a mediocre quality, I appear to grow to like it with time. It is nice and ultra compact, and I carry it with me in my pocket all the time. It is slow, but photo quality is not too bad. My questions are as follows: - How often are other people, who bought a digital camera at a supermarket or photo store uses his/her cameras? - How do camera manufacturers design their cameras to last? How many shots would the industry be considered to be acceptable, without loosing their quality? - If as an amateur, I shot that many pictures, what about professional photographers? How many shots did they typically take monthly or yearly? - What part of a digital camera which likely to go haywire first? autofocusing system, metering system, built-in flash, mechanical components (buttons, springs, etc)? Just curious and would like to hear feedback from other users. Thanks |
