Perhaps if I explain the process differently... This is the best attempt you have to obtain a value without going to Canon.
- Take a photo.
- Use the button with the blue arrow on it to view the image. When that is displayed you should see one of the screens in the image below.
- If the shutter count (as indicated by the red arrow on the diagram) does not show, then press the Info button (see image below) on the back of the camera until it does.
The last four digits in that sequence are likely your shutter count. If it is greater than the number when you first bought the camera it is likely correct. For further assurance, if you still have a photo you took when you first got the camera, check that the number of the file name is smaller than the one on your screen.
It will help you now, and for resale purposes to have a copy of the user manual, which will tell you all about the camera. HERE is a link to that manual. On the top right of the screen, there is a disc icon (3rd from right) click on that to download it to your computer. It might be worth looking through that.
