->> I can't figure out how to get the actual # of actautions from my Canon 10d. I can't find it in the manual anywhere. Help.

there is a program that will get additional EXIF data you don't normally see and give you the formula to figure out the actuations.

->> I own [2] 10Ds and I'm pretty sure the EXIF programs don't work with the 10D. However, if you are the original owner and have kept all our digital image directories in one place, have nevr reset the camera, and have always shot in continuous numbering mode, you may be able to make an approximate guess.

Directory numbering starts at 101.
Each directory has a 99 image capacity.
If the last directory created by your 10D is 167, calculate:
167 - 101 * 99 = 6,534.

You may also almost assume this to be true if you purchased a used 10D body. If the last directory created was 188, calculate: 188 - 101 * 99 = 8613.

However, this may be a bit more 'iffy' on a used camera since you don't really know 'if' the camera was reset, 'if' it was set to continuous numbering, etc...

If someone knows a program that actually works for the 10D, that would be really cool.
