Virtualbox is a software you download and install. You say that you ran it in a virtualbox and got the true and accurate shutteractuations count? How do I run a virtualbox? Is there a particular program you used to get this to run? (Official download, not 3rd party.) I actually ran Tornado and Malwarebytes found 3 pieces of malware that Tornado installed and quaranted those malware. I ran Tornado and it popped for so much malware. There simply isn't a real shutter count for the 5DS and 5DS R because no shutter data ever gets recorded and written into the RAW or JPG files. My guess is that Canon simply removed that feature from the firmware. I noticed it when I tested a 5Ds for the first time. the 5Ds simply has no PTP accessible shutter counter anymore.

I looked at the debugtrace and the 0xd1ac value is empty and marked 0 byte long.Which program can I use to get the shutter count on my 5DS-R? I have shuttercount but does not work for the 5DS-R.It appears that Canon has closed the door on access to info needed for the count.I haven't heard of any programs that work now.This particular software that can cost up to $275Īdditional discussion on Canon removing the data needed to make a true shutter count for the 5DSR. Some software that claims it can read Canon RAW files can be a little expensive. That means you either need to send the camera to Canon or use a 3rd part software Have you ever wondered how to find the shutter count from your Canon? Since the days of Canon EOS 1Dn II and 1Ds II Canon hides the shutter count inside the camera.

You take it in to Canon service center and find out it has 300,000 shutter clicks and needs a new shutter, remember you paid fair market value, now you have to pay to have the shutter replaced, you overpaid for the used camera.

The need for an accurate shutter count is in one of those replies.Ĭonsider your buying a used camera which appears to be excellent condition and rarely used, you pay fair market value for a camera that was rarely used, it fails two weeks later after one photo shoot. CR2 files so I checked the official Canon forums and found the answer:Įveryone at this thread and more on the official Canon forums say that the only true shutter actuation count has to be done by Canon. CR2 files from my 1DS Mark II & 1DS Mark II to a Canon EOS utility and get the shutter count. Upon further research the file has the potential to be much worse because the application shows these when I upload it to Virustotal: My Malwarebytes showed these after a quick scan and quarantined them: Information can be read from a RAW file or simply for the camera if you connect the camera to your computer. When you run the software it gives this dialogue box. Yes, three different shutter count software hit for malware and this is an example of one of them.
