Canon is the only way to get a true accurate count. I believe shutter count is of little to no value anyway. A better solution but it will cost a bit more is to have Canon do a C&C on the camera and ask for a shutter count (no extra charge) if you must. Of course this is in case you actually buy th I use Dire Studio Shutter Count on Apple MacBook Pro. It told me 1D Mark iii shutter count was stored in the photo files, and asked me to open a file. I opened a raw file as instructed, and I got this as below. This is not the file number, so it did get it from somewhere in the file. But I am not sure this is correct or not.

But Canon doeesn't do that -- nor do they display it in camera -- nor do they include any utilities that can view it. The info is maintained by the camera, but Canon doesn't make it easy to access.

Rebels usually have a shutter life of around 50k. I know these are estimates and I know of cameras that far exceed it. I know a guy that has a 1Ds Mk III exactly like mine. The Canon estimate for this workhourse is 300k but he went pass 1,000,000. They claim that 33% of the 1Ds Mk III's will do that.

@ jrhoffman75 Wondering why you would PM the OP and not just share the answer ? what's the answer to his question ?as I'm sure others are wondering
