Err 30 > Malfunctions related to the shutter have been detected.

Hope it's nothing serious...

Just wondering...does this errorcode also appear when your camera reaches the maximum shutter clicks?

No. The shutter rating isn't a 'maximum', it's just Canon's estimation of the approximate shutter life. It could fail before that, or it could last significantly longer. It's sort of like '60,000 mile treadwear' on a new tire - they don't automatically melt down at 60,001 miles...
