Just hit 500 shutter replacements on a single model line
Everyone says the Nikon F3 is a tank, but I've seen more of those shutter curtains fail than any other pro body from that era. After the 500th one, I'm convinced its reputation is mostly nostalgia. Has anyone else found a 'legendary' camera that's secretly a lemon in one specific area?

Five hundred shutter replacements? That's a whole new level of factory defect.

Tell me about it, my neighbor's camera died three times in a year and they still charged him for labor.
