Hi,I'd like to know how many actuactions this D2X camera has so far.
2065654
An actuation is the releasing of the shutter. Each time the shutter opens and closes is an actuation.Actuations can measure how many times the shutter has been fired, as well as being used as a measure of estimated shutter life.Shutters are either electrical or mechanical. Actuations usually are for mechanical shutters.Professional-grade SLRs can range from over 100,000 to 300,000 or more actuations;I am not selling my D2X

Indeed, the camera hasn't got a "total number of shots" counter accessible to the user.Mine has nulled the file-numbering three times though, so I know I have over 30 000 shots on it.- It has been semi-retired now for the 5d Mk III, so it will only operate as a backup camera in the future (still working perfectly though)

When I sold my three D3s, they each had between 28,000 and 34,000 actuations. The shutter is designed for mean time to failure for 300,000 actuations.

yes it looks like 4 buttons but only two work it is the two closest to the top or lense , press the bottom botton of the two on the top the light will light yellow then press top button and kinda hold it till it starts flashing then let button go and you are recording then to turn it off press the bottom button of the top two and it turns it off I don't know why everyone complains about these I have bought several and they all work just fine but don't leave them in a hot or cold car because they are temp sensitive and it will damage the battery packs

Barry! I just read now in the manual: Motion detection ON (enable) OFF (off). Try this when you connect 12 VDC to camera. It should detect motion. I never used this function either:-( Steve

I have two cameras. You can set it up to automatically switch if you like or change it manually.

I know on a D200 there is a 10 pin hookup to the top right of the lens as you look at the camera. I think a D2X would have a similar configuration.

I took 100's of pictures on a short trip - most of them of my grandchildren. The youngest is a shaker and mover too. ;) He is ALWAYS in motion. I probably had to delete 6-8 photos of the 200 for movement (mine or theirs). One of the events I attended was a pizza party and my pictures of the children (who were moving constantly) turned out great. This camera also takes videos, but I haven't played with that yet. I was very pleased with this camera overall. I am not sure how it would do in sports applications or constant movement, but I assure you the toddler never sat, stood or posed - and I still able to get some great pictures.

I'm not sure what you're asking here.If you want to know how many pictures you can take, that depends on how big of a memory card you are using and has nothing do with the camera. If you are wanting to know about battery life, the d3 battery can last for up to 4,300 pictures between charges. If you are wanting to know about the number of pictures already taken (shutter count) of the camera being sold, you should contact the seller directly instead of posting it here because it will be different for each camera. However, DO NOT buy this camera from Wall Street Photo. They are asking for 5 times what the camera is worth!

Sorry, I can't help. I bought this camera for a vacation that got postponed. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. :(

I only bought this as a replacement camera and never used two cameras at the same time. Sorry to not be of assistance.

So far is been really good. I've done a 2 hour amatuer photo shoot with a friend modeling for me. Had over 200 pictures, many with a flash and various camera modes and it was only down to 1/2 charge on the power meter. I was not doing much for zooming though since all shots were within 6 feet.

I own one of these I have seen articles telling you how to reveal the shutter actuations but they come with warnings about messing up the firmware. As far as I know there is no way to get the exact shutter count with that said the file number given to the next picture you take should put you in the ballpark

I am not selling anything. I have a D2xs but I don't use it much. I use my D80, D90, and D3

You have to use an external program such as opanda iexf editor. Install and run that program, open a recently taken picture with that program and it will show you what "click" it was taken on. Actually they are called shutter actuations.

Yes it has at least 2 from what I remember. I used it with my dji naza with no issues. Used it with coarse lock, home lock and the other one (can't remember) and the other 3 position for GPS, attitude mode, and manual
