I have just 'turned over' the 'odometer' on my D1X...Starting again at DSC_0000 and counting. I guess over 10000 images is about time? Actually, when is a good time? Maybe like 3000 miles and time for oil change?

->> Andrew,
My D1x has rolled 11 times since I got it in October of 2001, and still going strong!
My camera is on DSC_8987, so it will probably roll on Monday (nothing really being shot between now and then) for it's 12th roll over to "zero."
I like to clean up and dust gun the camera to spiff it up after it's 10,000 frame cycle :0) |

->> It also needs to be pointed out that Steven has a bank of burned CD's 10 feet tall and 80 feet long. ;)
My 1D will is at 19982 right now and I just got it in September... OF course the time I put it in my bag without turning it off with an empty microdrive in it didn't help with keeping the actuations down.... (Read between the lines.) |

->> Thomas:
You mean I was supposed to save and archive the images I shot? Oh crap! I just took my best twelve and formatted the card :0)
Most of my shots are quite boring. Athletic Departments want a dozen shots of each player, isolated, at each game looking "athletic." I shoot alot of me, but I end up shooting 300-400 shots per game to edit down to an average of 100 photos.
I'm sure the Olympics helped with the frame count....as does my two year old who has learned to chimp |

->> Thanks for the replies guys...After buying the D1X last June and with over 10000 acuations, maybe I thought it would be best to ask the seasoned people when a good time is good. Daym Steve, 10' ft high stack of CDs...let see ...maybe a Terabyte or two??
