Not seeing total pictures in EXIF

[cterlizzi]

Picked up a Nikon DF and wanted to see the shutter count. Even after I realized it would be under "Total Pictures" vs "Shutter Count" I can't seem to find the data in the EXIF information. I even tried de-installing and re-installing (latest 64 bit version and plugins to see if maybe there was something wrong with my METADATA plug in. I have not tried to install 32 bit version, but hopefully this wouldn't be a possible issue between the two versions.

However, no matter what I try I can't seem to get the full amount of EXIF information even though (a) I can get a bunch more EXIF information by using one of the web based EXIF readers on the same exact picture without problems and (b) saw on some other forums that others have been able to use Irfanview and can find "Total Pictures" without a problem in the "Maker Note: Vendor" portion of the EXIF information.

Adding all of the EXIF information I can see below and attached the same exact.JPG for reference (resized to meet upload limits)

BTW, Picture was taken with Nikon DF running firmware version 1.03 (latest) and I'm running IrfanView 64 v4.59 on top of Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit OS

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

I don't know what you mean with shutter count (English isn't my mother tongue), but isn't "ExposureTime - 1/125 seconds" what you are looking for?

[cterlizzi]

Hi Kuki... No worries, English is not my mother tongue either. Shutter Count would be the count of how many times the shutter has been actuated on the camera. In other words how many pictures the camera has taken. For example with my Nikon DF, the shutter count is about 51,000 pictures. In the example above Exposure Time would be more like Shutter Speed vs Shutter Count. By the way, IrfanView calls shutter count "total pictures" within the EXIF information. Cheers!

cterlizzi,
