I also found a post on DPReview where an owner of two R5’s encountered this issue while using the Shutter Count app. Don’t go by Shutter Count’s actuation estimate when reselling the camera and a prospective buyer asks about the camera’s shutter count. It shows that Canon’s software is actually recording BOTH Electronic Shutter and Mechanical Shutter actuations, even though you, as the user, are really only meant to know the Mechanical Shutter actuation number (in 1,000-shot increments).Ģ. In other words, I believe the R3, through its own menu and logging system, is only showing mechanical shutter actuations/release cycles.ġ. This is consistent with my non-use of the mechanical shutter, as actuations are only shown in 1,000-shot increments. Going into the R3’s menu (wrench icon, tab 5) and to “System Status Display”, the shutter actuations are shown on my camera as less than or equal to ( <) 1,000. Interestingly, the R3 itself doesn’t show Electronic Shutter actuations. The Shutter Count app reports the shutter count as less than or equal to ( <) 8,000. I’ve not used the mechanical shutter once on the camera, but I’ve taken approximately 7,200 Electronic Shutter images. I discovered that the Shutter Count app (available for MacOS) counts the R3’s electronic shutter “actuations/release cycles”.
