NIKON D70S shutter operations

[HONEYMON57ER]

hi,
I'm currently trying to sell a D70s body on e-bay and have been
asked how many shutter operations its had. Can someone please
advise how I can tell?


thanks, Barry

An exif reader will usually show actuations.

As above

1- Using your Nikon camera, take a picture in JPEG format. RAW formatted images won’t work with Opanda IExif.

2- Transfer that picture from your camera to your personal computer.

3- Download Opanda IExif. Double click the setup file to install it and click the Panda icon on the desktop to run it.

4- Select the “Open” menu icon. Choose the photo that you have taken before. Your picture will be shown on top left of the interface.

5- Select the “Summary” tab.

6- Scroll down until you reach the “MakerNote (Nikon)” section. Scroll down a little bit more until you find the “Total Number of Shutter Releases for Camera” attribute. A number will be shown next to this attribute. That my friend, is your Nikon Digital SLR shutter count.

Out of interest, how much are you selling it for, been looking for a decent D70s for a while?

thanks for the replies. Sorted it now. The shutter count is
2848 which I think is fairly low. Hoping to get £150 but who
knows with an auction?


thanks, Barry

Body only?. Yes that is a low shutter count.

That is VERY low. I can take more than that in a month.

Agreed, I pushed 1k in one night a couple of weeks back - for a timelapse

I thought this would be worth more than £150 as they're very popular with teh whole strobist movement taking off and the fact it's got an electronic shutter allowing high flash sync speeds.

And popular for IR work I believe. If you can live with noise above ISO 400 and the small viewfinder, they're very useful cameras.
