If your 550Ds firmware version is not 1.0.9 you will need to update it (this has nothing to do with the Magic Lantern firmware version, this is the Canon firmware). Checking the version: Put your camera in 'M' and switch it on (or switch it on first then put it to M, either way). Press the 'menu' button on your camera (top left). Since the days of Canon EOS 1Dn II and 1Ds II Canon hides the shutter count inside the camera. That means you either need to send the camera to Canon or use a 3rd part software. Uploading an image to a webpage to get the shutter count doesn’t work with Canon cameras post EOS 1Dn II/EOS 1Ds II.
Using numeric suffix of filenames written by the camera on a flash card is not equivalent to camera's shutter count (the suffix resets to 0 after 9999). Here are examples when the filename does not indicate the true number of pictures taken with the camera.- A new flash card is inserted containing a picture file with higher numerical suffix. The numbering then continues with this higher suffix.For example, if the last file written by the camera was IMG_3750.JPG, this indicates that the shutter count is 3750. If a new flash card is inserted with a file IMG_4100.JPG, then the next picture taken with the camera will be written under IMG_4101.JPG. The shutter count in this case will be only 3751.
- If a blank flash card is inserted afterwards, some cameras like the Canon 60D will continue previous filename numbering; for example, will write file IMG_4102.JPG when shutter count is 3752.The file name is edited to lower the numerical suffix. Some cameras, such as the Canon 5D Mark II, will use the card filename to construct the name for the next picture. This results in a much lower perceived shutter count than the true shutter count.For example, let's say the filename is edited from IMG_9000.JPG to IMG_2000.JPG. The next picture file written by a camera like Canon 5D Mark II will be IMG_2001.JPG. The perceived shutter count is 2001, whereas the real shutter count is 9001.
- Pictures are taken when the camera is connected directly to a computer (without a flash card inside).

msowsunmsowsun 9,282 posts Gallery: 18 photos Best ofs: 1 Likes: 382 Joined Jul 2007 Location: Oakville Ont. Canada | http://eoscount.com/ Which cameras are supported for shutter count retrieval? Single-DIGIC III, all DIGIC IV, and some DIGIC V EOS cameras are supported. For example, shutter count can be read from the •Rebel XS / 1000D / Kiss F •Rebel XSi / 450D / Kiss X2 •Rebel T1i / 500D / Kiss X3 •Rebel T2i / 550D / Kiss X4 •Rebel T3 / 1100D / Kiss X50 •Rebel T5 / 1200D / Kiss X70 •Rebel T3i / 600D / Kiss X5 •Rebel T4i / 650D / Kiss X6i •Rebel T5i / 700D / Kiss X7i •Rebel SL1 / 100D / Kiss X7 •40D •50D •60D •70D •7D •6D •5D Mark II •5D Mark III •1D Mark IV •1D X •1D C DIGIC II and dual DIGIC III cameras are not supported. For example, shutter count is not available for the original 5D (Mark I), the 1D Mark III, and the 1Ds Mark III. sergeyv wrote in post #13922248 Try http://eoscount.com You'll have to use a 32-bit version of Internet Explorer and install an ActiveX control for communication with the camera. Then the control will read the shutter count from a 60D or a 7D right in the browser. EDITED to show which cameras and which browsers are supported... Which browsers are supported? 32-bit Internet Explorer 5.0 and later. Firefox and Chrome are supported through the Internet Explorer tab (IE Tab). Other browsers are supported only when they can run ActiveX controls. A browser must be 32-bit, as a 64-bit browser cannot run 32-bit ActiveX controls. The EOS Count control is 32-bit, because the Canon SDK is distributed in 32-bit version only. The recommended browser is Internet Explorer 9.0.
