It's buried in the Exif data.


http://www.opanda.com/ is a good Exif reader

Use an exif reader, like Exiftool by Phil Harvey - the file has the shutter count in the metadata.

With a Nikon, you have lots of choices, as you can see below. Each will give you slightly different extra info, so take a look and decide which one you want to use.

Get Irfanview (free) and also get the plug-ins for it. Start the program, open a photo, click on Image > Information > Exif info.
Get ExifInfo - also free. Unzip and get the icon onto the Desktop. Find a photo and drag it onto the icon. A window will open with loads of info. Look down the list for Shutter Count (or whatever they call it).

I second that opinion EXIFtoolGUI is very good and free.

I am so happy to be one of the few who will never worry about shutter count.

Man, I wish I could be like you. I've woken up at 3:00 AM and run downstairs to check my cameras just make sure shutter count hasn't crept up while I was sleeping. So far, so good. :D
