The problem with ads is that 1) nobody clicks on them, and 2) the cost per click in many countries is close to 0. For example, in China, where many visitors come from, the cost per click is 2-3 cents.

Frequent personal users would be able to continue using the tool as before after a negligible fee. This option would be really nice. I have no problem with paying for such tool but not each time I wanna use it... You may also create some kind of year registration so that people can use it whenever they want during one year and pay again for it the year after.

Don't confuse shutter counts with pictures taken. I have taken 4548 pictures but I have another 2434 shutter counts because of live view. I'm No Rocket Surgeon

Maybe you used a card from another camera that had a higher number of images on the card. The camera sees the image number on the card, whether from the current camera or another camera, and increases image numbers from there. Thus, if you used a card that had come from an older Canon camera with IMG_2500.JPG on the card, your new camera had a lower number of images, the new camera would start numbering from there.

"Astrojargon EOS Info" is free but only works with Canon DIGIC III/IV DSLRs: 40D, 50D, XSi/450D, T1i/500D, XS/1000D, and 5D MkII. http://astrojargon.net/EOSInfo.aspx EOSInfo and EOSCount both give me the same shutter count..... It's a 5DM3 so I'm not sure if it will work. I'll scout about and might give it a try if I see others have used theirs with it.

There is also a LINUX program that will give shutter counts and it is free: https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php?t=1058019 My numbers are based on the physical number of RAW images I have on my system. I had 3224 images but it is being reported as 2588 by EOSCount. I'll look at your link later, looks a bit long-winded to be that bothered with at the moment. Thanks.
