Nikon Cameras are Like the Energiser Bunny :
- An event photo business in Rotorua has been using Nikon D80s to photograph the thousands upon thousands of people that frequent the popular Luge downhill ride.
Cameras are mounted in a box, and triggered by sensor as the luge carts pass.
The cameras are thus often fired over 1,000 times per hour, quickly knocking up some serious mileage.
Nikon service reports that one of their D80s, recently in for servicing, had done 856,570 shots, or, in film speak, 23,793 rolls of 36 exposure film.
The event photographers also have another D80 that's done over 1.2 million shots without a service!
