New Software to grabbing EOS Shutter Count Nov 11, 2013 with this software that i found you can grab Shutter count and other items from many newest Canon EOS cameras include 6D, 70D, EOS M.

Even if shutter life weren't a consideration, a large volume of images is a lot more work to process. But the reason you own a camera is to take pictures. Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis Download Free Full Version.

So if you have time to process what you take, and you have a sensible 'keeper' ratio, you're probably better off not messing with what works. If, after a shoot, you find yourself wishing you'd taken more shots, the fact that your shutter may last a little longer will be small consolation.

I would'nt say I take shots thoughtlessly, just banging away. But I have taken shots I won't be shooting as much anymore, as I get better. And I'm better now than when I started. Alot of shots were at 1st just practice getting to know and getting the feel of the camera. Then shots to test different lens, lighting, different situations, and trying new things. Trying different adjustments in my camera.

I gotta admit, most of them I deleted, although I have kept a small amount as keepers. The 3 day Jazz Fest, among some others are keepers, though I still deleted many of the bad ones. No matter how well I take my shots there's always a few I don't like for 1 reason or another. I'm just getting above the 1/2 way point of more keeper's, than throw aways. I'm starting to keep even more, that I use to delete because of Post Ed. Lynda Php Mysql Essential Training Free Download on this page. Yep, many Pics I would normally delete are saved through DPP.

There's still features and ajustments I have'nt learned to use like HDR. I struggle cropping pics and enlarging them. The cropping tool is different from any other crop tool I've used. I use it mostly for straightning pics I take on the water and it's very useful for those. I'm starting now to be more objective in the shots I take, and of corase that means i'm taking less shots on each outing. But as you say, the reason I'm into photography is to shoot pics and learn. I'm doing just what you told me to do Bob, I go out everyday.least almost everyday, and practice.

5652 divide by 3 to get monthly = 1884. 1884 x 24 months = 45,216. Not even half way! Golly gee Obiwan, I don't know what was in the milk I had that night i posted that, but yeah, that must be some kinda new math i figured with.you're correct Man, I have no idea how I was off that far. Though I did just throw the figures togather up in my head. I just re-did it on my calculator and came up with the same thing you did. But this makes me very happy to learn, now I can expect my 60D to get twice as much mileage as I had figured.
