I would pay for having the shutter count !!!

[martmtl]

I am not very good with these command line on Terminal ...

Can someone actually do it for me, I would pay !!

Thank you

The steps are simple:

1. Download the ExifTool windows executable, and unzip the archive.

2. Move "exiftool(-k).exe" to your hard disk and rename it to "exiftool(-shuttercount -k).exe".

3. Drag and drop files and/or folders onto "exiftool(-shuttercount -k).exe"

Since "Terminal" is mentioned, it might be that they're on a Mac instead of Windows.  I could be wrong, though.

[Phil Harvey]

Ah.  You're probably right.  So the instructions are:

1. Install ExifTool for the Mac.

2. Open a Terminal window and type "exiftool -shuttercount" then SPACE (but no RETURN)

3. Drag and drop files and/or folders onto the Terminal window

4. Select the Terminal window, then press RETURN.

Remove the quotes.  You put them around both the command (exiftool) and the argument to the command (-shuttercount).  This causes bash to look for a single command called "exiftool -shuttercount", which doesn't exist.

Try this:
exiftool -shuttercount /Volumes/Untitled/DCIM/118_FUJI/DSCF8606.JPG

It worked.  It's just that your camera doesn't save a ShutterCount.  Looking at the Fuji camera metadata list, you might try to use ImageCount instead, but might have to face the probability that your camera doesn't save that information to the pictures.

Hi Phil. I tried this with canon 80 d and the command prompt just told me to "press return" and then closed the command prompt with no info.
exiftool(-shuttercount -k).exe and imagecount

canon 80 d not supported?

From what I recall, a lot of Canon cameras don't include this information in the file, though the camera may keep track of it internally.  I faintly recall a linux program that could get the info from older cameras, like a decade ago.  No idea if it's still possible or not.
