camera actuations
« on: May 30, 2008, 09:05:59 AM »
under the camera actuations data on my MKIIn's. On one it says 9750, on the other it says -10170. I asume that it is 9750 clicks on one but what is the -10170 mean on the other??
Thanks,

It could mean that a firmware update is causing the camera to write out the information in a different format than Photo Mechanic is expecting.  We have had to figure out on our own how to decode that information since Canon does not make it public.

Having a sample file from you would help.  Click on my name to the left of this message and then click on the 'personal message' link.  I will respond with server upload info.
