Probably. But they're not going to tell us and our conjecture as to why would be pointless.

maybe to spare retailers who might have customers moaning it wasnt at zero when they first opened the box- eg because they allow potential buyers to fire off a few shots (at 10fps).No sensible person would be bothered if the count showed a few hundred clicks?

Providing that you never resets the serial number, which I had never done so. How bout the serial number photo? Let's say your last photo number is 878-7847, I think it means that you have taken 77 847 image. Anyone can verify?

Could it be they don't want us claiming for shutters that haven't given anything like their life expectency?
