There are several website that will tell you shutter count simply by uploading a jpeg.

Unfortunately I don’t have the addresses committed to memory but Google can help you out.

Tried others with no success. Other sites seem so complicated. Even contacted Nikon support and they couldn't direct me to a 3rd party site. A few sites out there but when I try to download I get all kinds of distractions. Shouldn't be this hard. Contactd Nikon support and they couldn't help.

read the article and yes tried nikonshuttercount.com. in the website the captcha not working. Further, In the camera listing the D7100 is not listed as being supported. Found this in Opanda as well. Nikon D7100 info is just not available. One link says it can be read in Photoshop, but I don't have that program on my computer. Believe me I've gone to all the links and just can't get that info. Just will sell the camera on Ebay without the shutter count. Thanks for all your help.

Nikon digital cameras provide shutter count by writing a metadata field in the EXIF info for every image taken, raw or jpg.

I shot a D3000, D5100 and a D7100 for years, and every image retains the shutter count in EXIF.

You can upload an image taken to a web site, or you can just look at the EXIF data with an EXIF viewer.

I myself chose to read the EXIF data myself using a tool like EXIFTOOL or plugins for Lightroom.

BTW Lightroom and other editors do not display all the EXIF data an image contains, only what the developer considers important, so a tool like EXIFTOOL or a plugin is needed to display all the data.

FWIW : Here is a section of the EXIF data available within a NIkon file.... I shot raw and converted to DNG in Lightroom then make use of Jeffery Friedl's excellent Lightroom Plugin to display metadata. Jeffery's plugin makes use of EXIFTOOL to read the EXIF data from the image file from within Lightroom.

The shutter count is circled in red.


The metadata tag name in a Nikon file is €"image number"€, not "€œshutter count"€ anyway, so you may miss it if you are looking for the tag shutter count.

Looking on any photo site, like flicker, that displays EXIF data. Examine any Nikon taken photo with EXIF data displayed and scroll down thru the tags and you will find the shutter count displayed in most cases. Some software will remove some EXIF data when the file is exported, depending on the user settings.

If you post an image from your D7100 here, include the EXIF data ( by checking “store original” ) and it should contain the image number that can be read by displaying the EXIF in a viewer, post one and I will take a look.

You must be doing something wrong, Gave me shutter count for my D7100. It took about a minute to upload but worked fine.

Nikon digital cameras provide shutter count by wri... (show quote)


I just checked a NEF file in Lightroom, right click on an image file: metadata : save metadata to file.
It will save an xmp file onto the same folder and then open it with MS Word. On the 2nd page, 5th line, you would see << aux:ImageNumber="23377" >> which I believe it is the shutter-count number.
