Shutter Count

What's a "normal" average for shutter actuations for MF?

I'm looking at upgrading my body/back. My camera has been my main workhorse for the last 7+ years, and it's >110K.

I'm curious, everything I've seen for sale online is well below half that.

I think it's a subjective number to quantify, But if you've shot approximately 16,000 shutter actuations/year in that amount of time, I'd say that's more or less average. It would also depend on the rated shutter cycle for your particular camera. I've seen Hasselblad cameras such as the H1/H2, that have as much or more actuations. Digital backs don't really experience too much wear as opposed to the actual shutter curtains.
