Shel mentioned earlier that he has an M3 and M2. Both were likely made in the late 50's or early 60's. That's 40+ years. It works out to about 11,000 frames a year if it was made in 1961. I'm currently shooting about 6-8000 frames a year, (I did about 5000 frames of film last year, and am shooting more this year) 11,000 frames a year is easily in reach for someone who shoots regularly.
That's also a weekend for some wedding shooters I know. -Adam Gonz wrote: > Lets see, thats about $70K worth of film you ran through there! (rough > estimate). Not including development, or prints.
