Took a picture of a dummy, today cause i was bored LOL and used my new, but old canon 20d;) decided to have a look at the exif in PS to see how many shutter actuations the camera had, sinse it had been advertised at under 2000 actuations, im very shocked to see that it says 234, yes 234:confused:

p.s very happy with it, and the pictures is produces are spot on:top:

Or perhaps it got to 9999 and rolled over to zero again :confuse:

Perhaps it is only Nikon then, where the shutter count appears in the exif. It is a good indication of how much the camera has been used but who knows how long they last?? They will give a "guideline" figure but it really depends how the camera is treated...:confused:
