To any any new photographers out there, when mentioned regarding the lifespan of their DSLR's, they'd be asking the same question; How do we check it?
You'll need 3 things to do so:
Obviously, you'll need to install the Opanda IExif so I'll skip the boring part. After installing, just open up Opanda and load the image you have taken most recently. Here's a print screen of a photo that I took to check the shutter count:
The shutter count can be found under the MakerNote (in my case it's MakerNote(Nikon)).
Isn't that easy? If you can't find it, it is highly possible that you will need to try other softwares as your camera is not supported. Please do take note that if you want to know the actual shutter count of the camera, you will need to use the latest photo. Otherwise, you will not get the accurate info.
This software works well with Nikon & Canon's DSLR and PnS(Point n Shoot) cameras. However only a certain range of Sony cameras will be able to check their shutter count using this method. If you've found any flaws on the software, do let me know.
