I'm looking at a used D300 body to buy. The seller says it probably has 50,000 exposures on it. Any ideas on the expected number left before it quits?

The life expectancy is 150000 actuations. Mine worked until a bit over 182000 when something gave up and I had it replaced.

As above but about 50,000 is a bit lame and i wonder how many it is, the seller can check using this site.
