Beside each photo I put on Flickr, there’s a link that says “ Taken with a Nikon D70. More properties” And on that page, it has all sorts of wonderful information about the picture: shutter speed, focal length, sharpness, flash, and more.

Then, near the bottom, there’s this amazing statistic ... Total Number of Shutter Releases for Camera:

Can you imagine!  I can tell how many pictures, total, I’ve taken.  That’s superb!

Anyway, I’ve had the camera since Dec. 25, 2004, and I have taken 1800 shots.  That’s 76 photos a day, on average.  I’m definitely a little photo crazy.

If you have a Flickr account, and a camera that keeps track of your shutter releases, what’s your “high score” and your daily average?  Inquiring minds want to know… Post your links in the comments.

Overheard

“The superior man contains the means in his own person. He bides his time and then acts. Why then should not everything go well? He acts and is free. Therefore all he has to do is to go forth, and he takes his quarry. This is how a man fares who acts after he has ready the means.”

...who said it?

“Greatness is only a matter of will.  It is the end result of patience, determination, direction and strength.”

...who said it?

“kindergarchy n. Rule or domination by children; the belief that children’s needs and preferences take precedence over those of their parents or other adults.”

...who said it?

“The Northeast Blackout affected 50 million people and zero PEER 1 customers. Find out why.”

...who said it?

“As in 2007, the average U.S. worker has 14 vacation days this year. Just across the Canadian border, our counterparts get an average of 17 vacation days annually. But if you want a real “vacation envy” complex, consider the vacation banks of European workers. France tops the list with an average of 37 days, followed by Italy (33 days), Spain (31), the Netherlands and Austria (28), Germany (27) and Great Britain (26). “

Quality trumps quantity, so you have nothing to worry about.

I also have a D70, and have been unable to locate this statistic. I've been told that it's contained in the Metadata, but so far I can seem to find everything BUT the shutter count. I'm using the Adobe RAW plugin (by XMP) downloaded from the Adobe website to view the data (in PhotoShopCS)



Any help would be great (emails welcome!!!!)



Cheers,

Andre
