After it runs out of oil???
Well I did wonder and I guess yes. So how long before the shutter then fails/sticks due to metal on metal?
I guess this is why Nikon either replaced camera with D610 or put in a new shutter.
It beggars belief that after 100years, or whatever it is, manufacturers still find a way to mess up the basics. Change for the sake of change has a lot to answer for. My own hobby horse is the changing eye cup. I would have thought they could have evolved the perfect shape of eye rubber after all these years....ideal viewing needs have been known for sometime!!! But virtually every new model has a variation in some way. I can't help thinking with all the component complexity they have to deal with, standardising some components across all their models would be a welcome simplification.
