Shutter count close to 65536 !!!

[7bit]

The ShutterCount of my Nikon is at 65532

What will happen after 4 more shots?

Code: Select all

@0x0000538=1336:<0X00A7=167> ShutterCount [ 4=LONG 1] = 65532

How unproductive. Did they forget that their goods have to stop working exactly after the 2 year warranty. The counter is to high
I'll vote that the camera will explode in your hand
But actually it should begin at the smallest value, in you case it should be 0

It will start at 1.

It will start at 1.

Code: Select all

@0x0000560=1376:<0X00A7=167> ShutterCount [ 4=LONG 1]  = 1

It started from 1 originally.

BTW:
I know the story of a 1980s BMW where the km counter got stuck at 297'600 km ! *

Overflow behavior is undefined, but a common one in these circumstances is max + x = x, so 65535 + 1 = 1.

in any case...film it just in case it goes boom. I like explosions.

OK, when I bring you the Tipro, I will take pictures when you hit the shutter button.

A kitten dies. Either something breaks, in which case you throw your camera and it just happens to hit a lamp-post, which falls over and lands on a kitten - or you are busy taking photos of a kitten in a watering can with your sepia filter on, and nothing happens - so in frustration (because you voted otherwise in your own poll and had bet your house on the results), you pick up the watering can and throw it into a nearby well, which is full of crocodiles. They eat the kitten but return the watering can.

Either way: a kitten dies. Mwahahaha.

Hey! I like explosions too so I want it to explode.

I used to mix hydrochloric acid with foil to make explode things

So, take few more pics an see what happens, I suspect the counter will actually go all the way up to 99999. Consumer devices usually behave like that, instead of exposing "short int" limits. For sure nothing bad will happen.
