I wouldn't worry about an 8000 shutter count. The 7200 is a great body. Product photography is incredibly tedious. For what you are doing I would not worry so much about a macro lens and think more about a good (not just solid but easy to use) tripod, a good ball mount, a good posing set up (studio), lights, and editing software first. If you've got all that now you are way ahead of the game. A short zoom lens would be more versatile than a fixed macro (less jacking around with the tripod). In the context of product photography and for images uploaded to the internet where the final resolution isn't great, you'll never notice the difference between a software cropped and enlarged image and a 1:1 image.
