Getting Started with ShutterCount

Identifying the connection type

ShutterCount supports three different methods to retrieve the shutter counter: direct USB and Wi-Fi / Ethernet connection (required for most Canon EOS cameras), as well as File Mode to support Nikon and Pentax cameras (and a few older Canon EOS-1 series models).

To identify which connection type your camera supports please consult the Tech Specs page. If your camera is listed under the USB section, then it can be connected via USB. If it is listed under Wi-Fi / Ethernet, then it can be connected via Wi-Fi (or Ethernet). If your camera is listed under File Mode, then you must use a picture taken with the camera to retrieve the shutter counter.

USB and Wi-Fi cameras will not work via image files, and vice-versa: File Mode can't be used on cameras that require a direct USB or Wi-Fi connection.

Connecting a camera via USB

The USB connection seems pretty easy, but there are a few gotchas we learned through the years. First, it is recommended to read your camera's user manual on how to make the connection.

Wi-Fi on the camera must be disabled when connected via USB as it blocks the USB port when enabled.

macOS Catalina 10.15.2 and later users must allow both Photos and Removable Volumes access. macOS will not let the app to communicate with USB connected cameras otherwise. In case you missed to enable these when prompted, 4.3 and later versions of the app will warn you to go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy, and on the Privacy tab enable these permissions. Photos is under Photos, but you'll find Removable Volumes under Files and Folders.

iOS 13.4 and later users must allow both Camera and Files and Folders access. iOS will not let the app to communicate with USB connected cameras otherwise. In case you missed to enable these when prompted, go to Settings > Privacy, and enable these permissions.

iPhone/iPad users will need Apple's Lightning to USB Camera Adapter or a USB-C equipped iPad. This post provides an overview of using USB connections on iOS.

Applications that connect to your camera (e.g. Kuuvik Capture, Canon EOS Utility, Capture One, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, Apple Photos) may interfere with ShutterCount. It is recommended to quit them before launching ShutterCount.

The recommended procedure is to connect and turn on your camera first, quit any applications that might launch automatically, and finally start ShutterCount.

Additional information on connecting the camera via USB on macOS can be found in Chapter I of the free eBook Kuuvik Capture Inside Out. The process is the same for both apps.

If you are having issues, please follow the USB troubleshooting guide in the FAQ and contact our support if that doesn't help.

Connecting a camera via Wi-Fi or Ethernet

You must pair the camera with the app to make it work via Wi-Fi (either built-in or with an external transmitter), or Ethernet (for cameras and transmitters that has an Ethernet port).

You must not start any Canon software: neither EOS Utility on your Mac/PC nor Canon's mobile application. They are not needed and will interfere with ShutterCount. You must pair your camera directly with ShutterCount.

It can't be stressed enough that you must do the pairing in EOS Utilityconnection mode (not to be confused with the similarly named desktop app). It will not work otherwise. The Wrong Connection Mode message indicates that you did not choose EOS Utility mode on the camera.

On a Mac

Start ShutterCount, click Wi-Fi and Ethernet Pairing.. on the ShutterCount menu. This is the only thing you need to do on the Mac.
Do the pairing process on the camera as if you would pair it to EOS Utility (described in detail in the camera's user manual). The camera will think that ShutterCount is EOS Utility.

On iPhone / iPad

Start ShutterCount Mobile, tap the Connect button, and New Camera Pairing.. This is the only thing you need to do on the iPhone or iPad.
Do the pairing process on the camera as if you would pair it to EOS Utility (described in detail in the camera's user manual). The camera will think that ShutterCount Mobile is EOS Utility.

It is recommended to connect your device running ShutterCount and camera to the same existing (Wi-Fi or Ethernet) network. Please refer to Laszlo's article, Canon Wi-Fi Pairing for Beginners, for step-by-step instructions.

Most Canon cameras only capable of connecting to 2.4GHz networks. If your router is configured to work only in the 5GHz band, the connection will not work. You must enable the 2.4GHz band.

Some VPN apps block local network communication, especially when Camera access point mode is used. So it is recommended to disable VPN apps, or add your local Wi-Fi to their exception/trusted network list.

The following videos (on our YouTube channel) show how pairing on an iPhone is done with different cameras (including built-in wireless as well as optional Wi-Fi accessories).

Additional information on connecting the camera via Wi-Fi on macOS can be found in the Wi-Fi and Ethernet section in Chapter I of the free eBook Kuuvik Capture Inside Out. The process is the same for both apps.

If you are having issues, please follow the Wi-Fi / Ethernet troubleshooting guide in the FAQ and contact our support if that doesn't help.

Using File Mode

For File Mode you need to take a picture with your camera first. It can be in any format the camera supports, be it JPG or its native raw format (DNG, NEF or PEF). But you can use only original files, created in-camera. No edited files, or DNGs converted with Adobe DNG Converter.

The history log for your camera will include the image's creation date as the date of reading, so you can safely use older images if you would like to build your history from existing images.

On a Mac

You have two options to bring the file into ShutterCount: scan the memory card or open the file directly.

The simplest and easiest way is to put the memory card containing the image into a card reader connected to your Mac (the built-in SD card reader can be used), then either drag&drop the memory card's icon from your Desktop onto ShutterCount, or choose the Scan Memory Card.. item in ShutterCount's File menu, then choose the memory card in the open dialog. ShutterCount will find and use the image with the latest date/time on the card.

Optionally you can open an image file directly: drag&drop the file onto ShutterCount, or use File > Open.. to open it.
