i was wondering, it is said the dslr has been tested for 150,000 shots durability.. if we've taken 150,000 shots with the camera, what happen next? the camera stops working??

is it true that the SB-900 has some issue like sometimes it doesn't fire? is it because of rapid shutter pressed?

yea.. it is something like the overheat protector.. in order to prevent your flash burn.. they will auto cutoff the power.. i never try SB900 before.. so i dunno how bad is it.. but i heard mostly ppl who complain are those that fire flash unstoppable and bounce to the sky type..

any SB900 user got any comment?

aiyo.. no need to sorry la.. when we dunno.. we sure will ask one ma.. but of coz my answer also not 100% accurate la.. just try to help out

i dont think it is like resetting the phone... it is changing a part inside the camera.. but when i asked the technician last time.. he said very rare got ppl change one.. dunno he got bluff me or not..
