More info | Mar 10, 2014 19:54 | #1 I am debating if I should keep or sell my 5DMKIII camera with battery grip and Kirk plate, I need to know if I send a RAW image the buyer, can he check the actuation count? I know I have less than 100 pictured but I have to prove. Don't know if ebay can support 22MB of data posted.

bseitz234 Senior Member  More info | I forget what the windows program is that does shutter count, but there's one in the mac app store called ShutterCount that I use. Just take a screenshot of the readout from that... good enough for most people.

I find that sales there go very well, for a lot of $, without putting a lot of burden on the seller to provide a ton of information. I would just list it on Ebay without bothering to find out the shutter count. "Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.

That's a croc! Just charged the batteries before I connected the camera (100% in the camera level), the SN is wrong and I have to pay for it? WHat else is going to give me false info?  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

I have also found that it is best to have auctions end at around 10 pm eastern time zone. I have not found that the day of the week matters at all. In theory it might seem that particular days of the week would be best, but that just hasn't played out in reality.
