In laymens terms, the shutter actuation (or count) is the number of photographs your camera has taken. This results in a much lower perceived shutter count than the true shutter count.įor example, let's say the filename is edited from IMG_9000.JPG to IMG_2000.JPG.
Some cameras, such as the Canon 5D Mark II, will use the card filename to construct the name for the next picture. The file name is edited to lower the numerical suffix.
If a blank flash card is inserted afterwards, some cameras like the Canon 60D will continue previous filename numbering for example, will write file IMG_4102.JPG when shutter count is 3752. The shutter count in this case will be only 3751. If a new flash card is inserted with a file IMG_4100.JPG, then the next picture taken with the camera will be written under IMG_4101.JPG. The numbering then continues with this higher suffix.įor example, if the last file written by the camera was IMG_3750.JPG, this indicates that the shutter count is 3750. A new flash card is inserted containing a picture file with higher numerical suffix. Here are examples when the filename does not indicate the true number of pictures taken with the camera. (see Q4 link below).Using numeric suffix of filenames written by the camera on a flash card is not equivalent to camera's shutter count (the suffix resets to 0 after 9999).

I would only need to use that app once and I would never use it again. Like I said earlier, I would like to know, but I'm not going to lose sleep over my lack of knowledge of my T5's shutter count.
Every "T" model after T4 is not supported, with the lone exception of the T5i model that is supported, but not the T6i and beyond.Ĭanon did something to makes the end user's job that much harder when we go and sell our older equipment.
