|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Canon Actuations Debra L Rothenberg, Photographer New York | NY | USA | Posted: 12:39 PM on 10.29.07 ->> I am a Nikon user, my husband is a Canon guy. I have a program that I can use to tell me how many shutter actuations are on my Nikons but it does not work forhis Canon. All the programs I have seen don't seem to work on my Mac. Is there anyone here who can tell me the count if I send you a jpeg, or do you a link to a program that will work with my G4. Debbie  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

The actuation counter in the EXIF isn't necessarily correct. On Canon bodies other than the 1 series cameras, it is often incorrect and doesn't work with some of those programs. The new 40D and Mk III's use a different actuation count and programs (like PhotoMechanic, which has a built in actuation variable {actuations}) need to be updated. Even 1 series bodies can have incorrect actuation numbers. If you (or the person you're buying a camera from) loads camera settings from a CF card, it will set the actuations count to whatever that camera had. If someone wanted to, they could have a 200,000+ actuation camera, pop in a CF card from a newer camera, and make it look like the old camera had fewer actuations. Canon did build in a true actuation counter into the camera, but only Canon service can read that number. There is more info on this in the camera bits forums, which is where this info came from (by reading posts from Kirk Baker, who seems to know a thing or two.)  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
