As I wrote at Light Scrape, I have now taken about 11,000 photos with my Canon Digital Ixus 400, and started wondering what is the rating for shutter cycles on this camera. In digital SLRs the rating is often between 50-100,000, and in high-end models at 150-300,000. But what is the expected durability of point-and-shoot cameras? Should I be worried? On the other hand, if the Ixus did break, this would be an excellent reason for getting a new camera. (Panasonic LX3 perhaps?) So, this is not really a serious problem, just a random thought.
