Free Camera Shutter Count Checker

Select an original photo in the shutter count checker above. The photo is processed in your browser, and the available shutter count, camera details and EXIF data are displayed.

Yes. Checking one photo and viewing its available shutter count and EXIF data is free, with no registration required. Certificates, subscriptions and Premium batch checks are optional paid features.

Start with an original JPEG or RAW file from your camera. ShutterCount also accepts formats such as HEIF and PNG. A shutter count is available when the file contains a readable counter.

Support varies by model and file. Use the camera search to find your model and check its shutter count support. Not every photo from a supported camera contains a readable shutter count.

Some cameras don’t save a readable count in every photo. Editing, exporting or sharing a photo can also remove the count. Try a file straight from the camera. If the original JPEG has no count and you have the original RAW file, try that next. A missing count means the checker couldn’t read a value from the file. A displayed 0 is a reading.

It depends on what your camera recorded in the photo. The number may describe mechanical shutter use or another measure of camera activity, such as the number of images taken.

There’s no single cutoff for every camera. If you have a mechanical shutter count, compare it with the model’s rated shutter life when a rating is available. Model statistics show how the number compares with other recorded counts for the same model. Use both figures as context and inspect and test the camera before buying.

Yes, if it is an original photo containing readable shutter count metadata. Ask for the original camera file rather than a screenshot or exported copy. The result describes the supplied file and does not authenticate camera ownership or condition.

Your original photo stays in your browser. For eligible results, ShutterCount automatically sends the EXIF metadata read from the photo to the service. See the Privacy policy for details.
