I recently bought a Lumix gx85 and now I am getting ready to sell one of my 2 gx1 cameras. I am also going to sell a 25 mm Panasonic prime
What I would like to know is how do you read the shutter count
Google, "my shutter count .com" and it will give you lots of web sites to use. Only certain cameras will work. Not sure about Panasonic.

Welcome aboard Pete.
Here you go Pete,
Shutter count on the G1 and GH1
With your camera's battery well charged, perform the following steps in sequence:
Insert a memory card into the card slot;
Turn the camera ON and take a picture;
Turn the camera OFF;
Select single shot mode;
Press and hold both the DISPLAY and FILM MODE buttons, while turning the camera ON;
To move to the actuations menu, press and hold the FILM MODE button, while pressing the MENU/SET and LEFT ARROW buttons simultaneously;
Again, press and hold the FILM MODE button, together with the MENU/SET and LEFT ARROW buttons. A two-page operation history display will appear;
Press DISPLAY to toggle between the two information menus;
Write down the number next to PWRCNT. This is how many times the camera has been powered up;
Write down the number next to SHTCNT. This is the shutter activation count;
Write down the number next to STBCNT. This is the number of times the flash has fired;
Switch the camera off to revert back to normal operating mode. Congratulations, you have successfully retrieved the shutter actuations information!
Wow that is cool thank you
Welcome to the Hog, Pete, enjoy.
I think with so many steps to follow I'd really rather NOT know!
