Canon EOS M100 — Shutter Rating & Entry-Level EF-M Context

The Canon EOS M100 (2017) is Canon's ultra-compact, beginner-oriented EF-M mirrorless camera. It features a 24.1 MP APS-C CMOS sensor with Dual Pixel CMOS AF, DIGIC 7 processing, a fixed 3-inch touchscreen (no tilt), built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and is one of the smallest EF-M bodies Canon produced. It targets first-time mirrorless buyers transitioning from smartphones or point-and-shoots. Canon does not officially publish a shutter rating for the M100; based on its class and comparable models, the expected shutter life is approximately 100,000 actuations.

CR2 format: The EOS M100 saves RAW files as .CR2 (Canon RAW 2), the older TIFF-based Canon format used before the switch to CR3 around 2018. ShutterCount reads the shutter count from the Canon MakerNote embedded in the CR2 file — no upload required.

How to Check Shutter Count on the Canon EOS M100

  1. Take a still photo with your Canon EOS M100 and locate the .CR2 RAW file on your SD card.
  2. Open shuttercount.app in any modern browser on a computer or phone.
  3. Drag the CR2 file onto the drop zone, or tap to open a file picker.
  4. The shutter count appears instantly, read from the Canon MakerNote EXIF data in your browser.
Use RAW (CR2), not JPEG: In-camera JPEG processing strips MakerNote data on Canon consumer bodies. Always use a CR2 RAW file shot directly from the camera for a reliable count.
