Day 145: Counting Down The Days

I think that my camera are nearing the end of its days.

A few times already my shutter got stucked and jammed and the LCD flashing the word "Err". At first I thought that that was just some minor glitch. But now I thought that it wasn't.

If you familiar with SLRs, you should know the term "shutter count". Every camera has its standard for shutter count, according to the lab test of the manufacture. Now that I have reached more than 40,000 clicks on my shutter, it normally would show signs of deterioration; of malfunctioning; because like all mechanical gadget, things wore down in due time.

And now I think that my camera already showing signs. Of its death.

I must start to save for the repair fee. Of the components and spare parts price. And I must ask Alta for the price and time required to repair the shutter release.

Ouch.
