My newest Mac app, ShutterCount displays the number of shutter actuations (the shutter count) of your Canon EOS digital camera. The shutter count is read directly from a USB-connected camera, and thus provides accurate numbers that are not attainable with simple EXIF-based methods.
Simple is that. You can skip the trip to Canon for a reading, and you don’t have to pay every single time you want to check the count. Note however, that video clips recorded are not included in the number. For a separate mirror movement reading (that includes videos) you should still have to visit a Canon service center.
Speaking of money, you can grab the app at a special introductory price from the Mac App Store. This promotion runs until the end of October.
