X100 shutter count

Apparently, the number of shutter actuations isn't recorded in the X100's EXIF data.

The only way to (more or less) keep track of the number of shutter actuations is to have the camera use "continuous" frame numbering * and to make sure to have it continue with the highest previous frame number after a firmware update §.
* This is set in the Setup menu's "Frame no." option. Continuous is default.

§ When you do a firmware update, have the most recent picture from before the update on the memory card, and take a picture directly after you've completed the update. This will set the internal frame no. counter to the old value (image file on card), incremented by one.​
