High shutter actuation 1DMK2 user needed

I'm looking for a volunteer that has a 1DMK2 with more than 65535 actuations on it to make a .CR2 file from that camera available for me to download.

I've written a small XP utility to examine the EXIF and display the actuation count but my 1DMK2 only has 2600 actuations on it and I need to test it with a file from a high count camera to verify that I've guessed the encoding correctly.

Once tested the utility will be made available free to all.

wish i could help, i only have like 17k
but thanks for making the utility

Working on uploading to my site - gimme a few minutes and I'll post a link. Not actually sure if it is that high though - I just bought it used this weekend.

Hi Jake. I make the count on your camera to be 12368 so I'm still looking for a higher usage camera although that's a nice low count for you.

I don't know about the old 1D but I'm happy to examine a file if you have one.

Holy crap. Looks like I got a good deal! My friend said he had no idea of the count but he estimated it to be less than 50,000.

Thanks Foxbat.

The count stored in that jpeg you PM'd me is 88803. The format is what I was expecting, which is nice.

Thank you both for your assistance. I'll tidy the utility up and make it available for everyone at the weekend.

I've uploaded a RAW file from my 1D Mark II here:

It should be actuation number 97,140

Cancount shows it as 97,141
