Shutter actuations: Canon EOS Rebel T3i

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>Would be grateful if you let me know the online site/program to know the shutter actuations of my Canon EOS Rebel T3i.</p>

<p>Thanking you in anticipation.</p>

<p>Regards,</p>

<p>i put magic lantern on mine and it tells you how many shutter actuations on the camera itself</p>

<p>Thanks Eddie. I have just bought T3i. Please let me know if ML is error-free and safe on T3i.<br /><br />And in case someone destroys the camera's software/operating system then what is the remedy?</p>

<p>The remedy is, much like a computer, to install a new copy of the OS. Reinstall either a) new firmware (whatever the latest version is), or b) ML again.</p>

<p>Thanks Marcus. But it won't ruin the camera. Right?</p>

There ya go, and with no firmware modifications necessary.</p>

<p>Thanks Leopold. I tried this site earlier. It's asking camera to be connected to the computer. For this I am bit hesitant due to viruses and malware. What do you say?</p>

<p>Well the program isn't telepathic, so your camera obviously has to be connected to the computer while you run it ;) Also, PC malware can't infect a camera.<br>

There's a long discussion thread about this program on <a href="http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1152012">POTN</a>, including screenshots of results and all that jazz. Unfortunately both my bodies are Digic II, so I haven't been able to try it myself.</p>

For my Nikon I used to upload the last image on the website and that gave the count.<br>

<p>Thanks Leopold. I have checked with eoscount, worked perfectly :)</p>

<p>Is EOScount accurate? I checked my 3 week old T2i and got over 800 shutter actuations, which is extremely high. I know for sure that I didn't take so many photos. I bought the camera from Wal-mart and it looked never been used.</p>

<p>Sanath, I bought my camera day before yesterday and results are accurate. May be you have to check with Wal-Mart.</p>

<p>I used the EOScount on my 7D and it showed about 38,000 count which seems to be correct.</p>

<p>EOS count should work w/ any Canon camera w/ a digic4 processor (or multiple Digic4s ;-) ), but I had heard a few rumors that it wasn't working on new Rebels (even though they were DiGiC4 equipped...), which was why I didn't suggest it. Good to know it still works reliably.</p>

<p>In answer to your question, no, it won't damage the camera (much in the same way Linux won't damage your computer ;-) ).</p>
