Lens actuations

[mikesnorth]

Hi everyone

Someone asked me today what the expected life span is for a lens.
How many actuations are they expected to do before most likely needing a "service"?

Is there any kind of estimate for this..under "normal working conditions" of course. ;-)

Thanks

my hassiagent told me last year 50.000 actuations.

My 50-110 has 162K still works fine.

Suggested service interval is 100,000 exposures.
