Digital Photography Tips and Techniques: How to find out the total shutter actuations of your DSLR

  • odelio · 1 year ago
    hi there...i'm really confused because i'm new in DSLR and mine is D80.... i just want to ask if for example my D80 shutter meets the average numbers of actuations which is 368,092.4, does it mean it will no longer work? or do I have to change the my whole D80???please help....

    thanks in advance

    If you have a Flickr account, just post an UNEDITED photo, straight from your Nikon camera (don't know if it works with Canon, etc) to Flickr and enable exif data. The shutter actuations will show as "total number of shutter releases for camera." This does not work with photos that have been edited via Adobe products.

    The person who gave the advice about Flickr was right...I just did it.

    Its not that there is a parameter. Its just that after a while the shutter tires out and may stop working, as my did the other day. Its not something you can predict.
