    I have a Canon 600D and I want to know the camera shutter count. How do you do this?

    I know for my Pentax, I had to look at the EXIF data from the last photo I took to find the shutter count.
    The easiest way I found is this site: http://www.camerashuttercount.com/
    Just take a photo of the inside if your lens cap and upload it. (the photo can be of anything, but I figure why upload a "real" photo if I can't be sure it won't be used for some commercial purpose.) ;)

    Thanks, i tried that but it says "Your camera doesn't add shutter count information to images. "
    It recommends a piece of mac software that can do it but I dont have a mac

    Try EOSInfo - it seems to work for most Canon's

    dont waste your time on EOSInfo software. I have 600D and tried EOSInfo but it crashes almost every time , when it doesn't it just shows error : camera not connected.

    I haven't yet found standalone software that works with Canon 600D. Having said that i do have Magic Lantern running on my 600D and in ML debug menu you can see shutter count information.
