Understanding Shutter, Mirror Counts and Histories


Shutter Count records the number of activations of the ‘current Shutter’.  Each time the Shutter is replaced the Shutter Count should be reset to the new shutter count.  Changing the Shutter Count automatically updates the Replacement History and Camera FAX.  Changing the Shutter Count does not change the Release Count displayed in the camera menu. 

 

To change the Shutter Count:

  1. Type in the new count number …  ‘0’ or other number.
  2. ‘Click’ Change and the new Shutter count will be written into the camera.
  3. Changing the Shutter Count automatically records the last replacement in the Shutter History and Camera FAX.

 

Mirror Count records the number of activations of the ‘current Mirror Unit’.  Each time the Mirror Unit is replaced the Mirror Count should be reset to make the count accurate for the new Mirror Unit. Changing the Shutter Count automatically updates their Replacement History and Camera FAX. 

 

To change the Mirror Unit Count:

  1. Type in the new count …  ‘0’ or other number.
  2. Click ‘Change’ and the new Mirror count will be written into the camera.
  3. Changing the Mirror Count automatically records the last replacement in the Mirror History and Camera FAX.
