You just typed exiftool without any parameters so its showing the help screen. Use the Ctrl key followed by C to get out of that. I cannot type into this window, nor can I drop anything here.
FUJIFILM SHUTTERCOUNT HOW TO
Now what? I am at a loss as to how to use this. OK I downloaded the application and this is what I see: There are also GUI versions if you aren't comfortable with command line but I've not tried them Lightroom strips out this information on export so make sure its a file SOOC I use EXIFTOOL- once you have it installed you open a command prompt (assuming this is Windows or Linux) - navigate to a directory with image files and then type "exiftool -ImageCount *JPG" (or RAF) I do not believe it is intended to be deceiving in any way, it's just shutter counts originated from the film camera times, when live view didn't exist.
FUJIFILM SHUTTERCOUNT MANUALS
However, every time you turn on live view it is one more shutter count, and every image taken with live view is two shutter counts.Īs far as I can remember is mentioned in the user manuals for Nikon DSLRs. With the exception of the X100 series, which uses a leaf shutter, all of the other Fuji X-body APS-C bodies use a curtain shutter curtains are shutters and are far more common than leaf shutters which are built into each lens. Unlike Olympus, and Panasonic, both of which I owned, Fuji does not specify the expected useful life of their shutters.įor a DSLR (as long as you don't use live view) the shutter count is the image count. You are not confusing "curtains" versus "shutter"? what they are saying is that you can count on 75.000 photos?ĭoes this apply to all cameras? This would then be highly deceiving, surely you can't mean that? So when a camera manufacturer states that a shutter has been tested for 150.000. A one way actuation is just half a count. When you take a photo is 2 shutter counts. One shutter count is one shutter opening and one shutter closing.

The X100 series is the only one that reports the shutter count in the menus and if Fuji has a secret maintenance page with that information like Olympus and Panasonic do, nobody has found out how to access it.Īlso, remember that the shutter count includes every activation there is one when you turn the camera on, one when you turn the camera off, one when the camera goes to sleep, one when the camera wakes up, and four when you take a photograph.
