Clicks ?

[squitty]

Hi,
Please forgive my ignorance on this matter. I have seen on various post people referring to their camera as only doing a certain amount of clicks. Could someone explain what this is and can I find out how many my camera has done.

Thank you.

It Is How Many Pictures Have Been Taken With The Camera In Total Since Bought New, Anything With Moving Parts Will Wear, So Lower Clicks Means There Is Less Wear. I Think You Can Get It By Looking At The Last Image You Took And It Is The Number Part, But Not Sure.

On most cameras the amount of shutter actuations is recorded, this program will tell you how many it's done :)

Also if you upload photos to Flickr it also says how many clicks you have taken.
