Is there a way to find out how many picts are taken with a digital
Canon camera. Is useful if one will buy a second hand camera.
Canon Canada was able to tell me my EOS-3 had 14,000 shutter actuations
when
I brought it in for check-up last year, it's only possible with their
specialized test equipment interfaced through the hot-shoe, which is also
how they upgrade the firmware on these film bodies.
Best thing is to ask a Canon service center if they have the same ability
with either all or a particular DSLR body.
Paul,
I believe this is stored in EXIF, but is not available to all readers for
some reason?
If your interest is in a 1Dwhatever try:
http://www.soens.de/ software
If not a Google for EXIF readers should turn up something.
HTH

Craig
