Which one do you buy? However, one was driven from Kansas City to Denver on I-70 and the other got its 100k doing the Baja desert race. For instance you have two cars both with 100k on the clock. It really tells you little about the camera. My feeling is, Canon never thought it was important to anybody. Counting film rolls is not a way at all to determine shutter count. No effort was made as to whether it was all used or whether we were using one or two or three or more cameras. When I was working, when you went to the film vault and ordered 35mm film they gave us a carton (12 rolls).

If you shot a lot this saved you tons of money. We put every count we wanted in a 35mm canister. A lot of guys, back in the day, and me, bulk loaded film. I don't agree or see how that is any sort of reasonable. ". it is relatively easy to ascertain the number of rolls of film shot through it." And there is no legal recourse for damages.Īnd do not rely on the Cloud as a backup.

Yes, as to Microsoft, I have repeatedly heard the same lame MS excuse, but that is more sales talk to scare people into W10, per numerous experts who also point to W10 enormous secuirty issues with the data not always going only to the MS cloud but other places, plus the W10 "back door or backdoor porch" that can easily be hacked, unlike W7.įor those who value their photo collections, it would be advisable to use not merely one, but three separate backups using special methods to transfer the files to seperate hard drives, plus special security software, or otherwise, come one happy day, they may all be gone in a mushroomed shaped cloud or corrupted beyond recovery.īTW, when doing one of the latest forced updates, when the HD is too full, MS can delete files, including precious photos, to make upwards of 20GB or more of space for the use of MS to insert thier updates. Sounds like the only reasonable answer i have seen yet, but what about all the other cameras?

See the posts in this thread that does not answer the above questions, only discusses the issues about where and how to get the count-from Canon only

I would prefer to think it is not to provide more incentive to replace the cameras with newer models, acting in the same type of method and with the intent and purpose as Microsoft has done with windows 7 to force upgrades to W10, with its spyware of keystrokes and other data going to their Cloud, Cortina, and even more worse, their forced upgrades that have wrecked drives and destroyed files and software, and with the latest upgrade has removed all barriers and guards to prevent forced upgrades.

If so, then why is it that Canon has not made the means and method to perform the count generally available, either for free or at a price, to shooters, or at least, to the various dealers and unofficial repair shops? Second part: Is it true that either the repair centers will not or can not perfom a shutter count as Canon has dropped official support based on the passage of time?


Later production cameras that have video available, do present different issues but the 5D Mark IV will show an approximate count on the camera LCD with a >< sign, understandable with the video option. Now on to digital: Shuttercount and other programs give a fairly reiable shutter count for the 1 Ds mark ii and earlier cameras and models as well as later production cameras, but not the 1Ds Markiii (and another 1D model-1D mkIII ) While a roll of film may have 24 or 36 shots available, one may simply assume 100 rolls equals no more than 36 times 100 equalling 3,600 or less shutter count, perhaps as low as 2,400 shutter activations, if only the 24 shot rolls were used. I am not sure of the exact start date, but for film cameras made in the 1980's and later, it is relatively easy to ascertain the number of rolls of film shot through it. Is there some unique reason with the camera to keep it from being able to ascertain the count from other means?Įxamine the history starting with 35mm film cameras. My question is two fold: Why was it ever necessary to go through the expense of sending it to a repair center? I know about the debates and posts about the lack of accuracy with the various attempts to obtain an exact and correct shutter count through various programs and means such as "EOS" or "ShutterCount "and the requirement to send the camera to the Canon repair centers as part of a service, but I have now been told by a local dealer, that since Canon stopped official support for the 1Ds mark iii as well as as the 1D, this count from a repair center is no longer a viable option.
