My cameras are the other way in that doing press and sport for years my shutter count is high. I have a canon 1d with well over 500,000 shots. My D3 which was my back up has over 200,000 shots and still going.
I have one friend that has a D4s with over 1,000,000 shots and still going, it has had 1 shutter replaced at just over 400,000 clicks and is still going on the replacement.
I am not sure I have ever SEEN 500,000 photos let alone pressed my finger that often.
I think that proves that the durability of the shutter is more than good enough and may outlive the sensor. I now wonder if arthritic index finger joints may be the actual limiting factor.
You could be right.
