Drop a .CR2 file from your Canon EOS 750D (Rebel T6i / Kiss X8i) and get the exact mechanical shutter actuation count in seconds — processed entirely in your browser, never uploaded anywhere.
Check Shutter Count →The Canon EOS 750D (2015), sold as the Rebel T6i in North America and Kiss X8i in Japan, was the first Canon Rebel to feature Dual Pixel CMOS AF across the entire sensor plane. The 24.2 MP APS-C sensor delivered a meaningful resolution jump over its predecessor, and the 19-point all-cross-type AF system replaced the 9-point system of the 700D. The mechanical shutter is rated at 100,000 actuations.
| Model | Release | Sensor | Rated Shutter | RAW Format |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Canon EOS 750D (Rebel T6i) | 2015 | 24.2 MP APS-C | 100,000 | CR2 |
| Canon EOS 700D (predecessor) | 2013 | 18 MP APS-C | 100,000 | CR2 |
| Canon EOS 800D (successor) | 2017 | 24.2 MP APS-C | 100,000 | CR2 |
| Canon EOS 90D (enthusiast step-up) | 2019 | 32.5 MP APS-C | 120,000 | CR3 |
The 750D’s Live View mode uses contrast-detect AF and does not bypass the mirror mechanism, so Live View shots also increment the mechanical shutter counter. Video recording, however, uses the electronic shutter readout and does not wear the mechanical shutter.
| Shutter Count | % of Rated Life | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| 0 – 5,000 | < 5 % | Very low use — near new |
| 5,000 – 30,000 | 5 – 30 % | Normal use for a casual shooter |
| 30,000 – 65,000 | 30 – 65 % | Moderate to heavy use |
| 65,000 – 85,000 | 65 – 85 % | Heavy use — negotiate price |
| 85,000 + | 85 %+ | Near or past rated life |
Many used 750D bodies on the market have 10,000–40,000 actuations — typical for a camera that served as a beginner or enthusiast body for several years. Given the camera’s 2015 release date, inspect the articulating screen hinge, grip rubber, and sensor cleanliness alongside the shutter count.
The Canon EOS 750D stores the mechanical shutter count in the CR2 RAW file’s Canon MakerNote IFD. ShutterCount reads this value directly in your browser — no server, no upload, no account.
JPEGs from the 750D contain reduced EXIF metadata and typically do not include the full Canon MakerNote required to read the shutter count. Use the original .CR2 RAW file for the most accurate reading. If you only have JPEGs, use gphoto2 or Canon’s EOS Utility over USB as an alternative.
The Canon EOS 760D (Rebel T6s) was released simultaneously in 2015 as a step-up variant. The 760D added a top LCD panel, a rear control dial, and an additional function button — ergonomic upgrades for more advanced users. The sensor, AF system, shutter mechanism, and 100,000-actuation rating are identical between the two.
Yes. The 750D can capture RAW (CR2), JPEG, or simultaneous RAW+JPEG. For shutter count verification, always use a CR2 file — the shutter counter is embedded in the MakerNote data of the RAW file.
Yes, for photographers on a tight budget entering the Canon APS-C ecosystem. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF gives the 750D a genuine advantage over the 700D for video autofocus, and the 24.2 MP sensor delivers competitive image quality. Its main limitations are the optical viewfinder, 9-fps cap during burst, and lack of 4K video. For stills photography, a low-count used 750D remains excellent value.
The shutter counter embedded in CR2 MakerNote data cannot be reset by software. Only Canon’s authorised service centres can reset the hardware counter. Always verify from an original CR2 file rather than a screenshot or JPEG.
