How it helps

Use it for a focused task

ShutterLife helps secondhand camera buyers and hobbyist photographers judge whether a used body is a smart purchase or nearing end-of-life. Pick a camera, enter the shutter count, and get an instant risk score with remaining-life context.

Save multiple bodies locally to compare candidates side by side. Select your camera make and model from the dropdowns.

Enter the current shutter count (found in EXIF data or via a shutter count reader tool). Optionally set the body's age in years and your typical usage style.
