My shutter counter

I used the camera I put it in the box or in the camera bag and I always removed the battery from it and the SD card. Sometimes I didn't use the camera in weeks other times in months even.One thing I noticed if I don't use the camera for a long time the camera settings resets. Is this the reason why the frame/shutter counter reset ?How do I find out how many pictures I took ? And why the frame/shutter counter resets ?If I count all the pictures 226+190+2105+3820 = I get 6341 pictures.Thank you!The filename doesn't give you any clue as to the shutter count.Try using this link and clicking on one of your recent files (make sure its straight out of the camera either jpg or raf):Fujifilm X Series Shutter CountIt won't actually tell you the mechanical shutter count because it includes images taken with the electronic shutter.

Any other advice ? Thank you! "}"> (unknown member) • Veteran Member • Posts: 3,966 Re: Fujifilm X-T3 ( shutter counter / frame counter reset ) ?

Thank you!Strange - what do you see if you try one of the files you created just before you sent off the camera? "}"> Re: Fujifilm X-T3 ( shutter counter / frame counter reset ) ? I did not sent off the camera. We met face to face. Then we made the deal. And he took it home. Anyways, the last time I used the camera was this summer. The date from last picture was 30.08.2020. Another thing I forgot to mention is that when I inserted the SD card in my PC (Extreme Pro 300mb/s) I had like 3 folders on it. Maybe

These folders messed up the count ? idk.

He gave me the money and I gave him the camera for 10 days so he can test it. Anyways, after 3 days he came back and told me he can't figure out how many pictures I took even though I told him. But, ofc, he doesn't believe me. I think is because the shutter/frame counter is reset and starts from 1. Anyways, I gave him his money back.I need your help, please!I barely used the camera. I used mostly for some street photography and family photos and I'm pretty sure the picture count is 6K+. I did some diggin and I found all the pictures on my PC and external hard drive. And notice 3 times the count starts from 1. Why is that ?There is an option to restart numbering from 11st folder I have 226 pictures the count starts from DSCF0001. Last picture is DSCF0226.2nd folder I have 190 pictures the count starts again from DSCF0001. Last picture is DSCF0190. I don't know

#1 So long history short... I sent my camera for service to change the autofocus sensor . BEFORE that, the shutter count was 15,266-- according to Camera Shutter CountMy camera came back and now it has 106665. I talk to the guy and he told me that he messes with some electronics and what not... and that MAYBE the shutter counter went A-wire at some point. Is this possible? I'm afraid that they may have stole my shutter and gave an old one. #2 Sounds extremely strange... something is not right. #3 I'm not even sure if Nikon can. I've heard they do when they install a new shutter, but I've only heard anecdotes and not hard facts.Are you sure you got the same camera back? Check the serial numbers. #5 extensive testing before it was returned #6 ....... I'm afraid that they may have stole my shutter and gave an old one. I don't think the shutter counter is physically attached to the shutter like an odometer is attached to your cars' dashboard. It's most likely part of the firmware. #7 I don't think the shutter counter is physically attached to the shutter like an odometer is attached to your cars' dashboard. It's most likely part of the firmware. This is correct. The shutter count isn't stored in the physical shutter. I had my D600 sent into Nikon for the oil problem. They changed my shutter, but the count wasn't affected.Who did the service? Is the serial number even the same? I've heard of scammers selling bodies that look like an expensive Nikon body, but the internal components are one of the less expensive bodies. What serial number is associated with your body? I'm not talking about the one engraved on the outside. You should be able to find that info in the EXIF. Not sure if Photoshop offers the serial number as part of a file, but there are programs where you can check. #8 I'm using Softmatic's Exif App on a Mac and it sees all my camera serial numbers in the EXIF data. #9 One more thing I forgot to mention: The guy told me that he can reset the shutter count via software or whatever... That he can even set a smaller number of actuations, so if I had 15,266 he can set it to 100 if he wants to. This sounds like fraud to me... So either this guy knows how to hack the shutter count (fraud), or he stole my shutter and gave and me old one. What do you guys think? I checked the serial number and its the same camera, plus it has some scratches here and there that give it
