The expected life of an SLR's shutter mechanism makes slightly
depressing reading when you think of the number of frames per second
times the length of the film when animating.
Corpse Bride is something like 110,000 frames edited.
Isn't the 1D Mark II rated for 200,000?
That's not too bad! Mind, doing a 1fps timelapse for 6 hours is 21,600
shutter releases.
We shot a lot of animation (and timelapse) on a D100 and I remember it
had a much lower life expectancy although it's still going strong for
its new owner.
So it's toast after the shoot, but they should be able to afford a new one
for the next shoot... ;-)
I think I remember reading they used several SLRs on each shot to get
options for editing - another benefit of a smallish camera.
BTW: this is one of the reasons why stop-motion was traditionally shot on
movie cameras.
And there would have been quite a few rolls of 36 exposure film going
off to the chemists!
