After the camera have reach shutter count, lets say 300k. Thats mean we cant use the body anymore, or we just need to send in for servicing ?

at the end of the rated life, the camera will become as useful as a paperweight... give it away to someone and get a new camera
kidding....
Just like car tyres don't have a precise lifespan (eg. exactly 30,000kms and they'll explode), the rated life of a camera's shutter mechanism is a statistical value of the average lifespan before failure of the shutter mechanism. When the thing fails, simply send to service centre and get the mechanism replaced, and you're good to go
just shoot until it fail, it is replaceable, anyway, only very few people ever shoot till shutter failed, so don't worry too much about it.After the camera have reach shutter count, lets say 300k. Thats mean we cant use the body anymore, or we just need to send in for servicing ?

Apparently some people shot over a million and its still working, as said by everyone, that's the estimation, I have friends whose camera is rated for only 50k, they've gone past that to about 100k or more, if its too old and you are looking a reason to upgrade, as zerocoolastra said, you can use it as a paper weight hahaha
Haha I was thinking "what DSLR is rated to 300k shutter counts?" and immediately the evil thought came to mind
Gimme gimme gimme!
:devil:
