Shutter Count

Duncan — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 14:45:35 +0000

What is the shutter count?

The shutter count on your DSLR is like the odometer on your car. It refers to the number of pictures your camera has taken in total. The number (often referred to as shutter actuations or cycles) is a good indicator of how much life your DSLR has left. If you’re buying a used DSLR you’ll want to know this and vice versa if you’re selling one. Professional DSLRs have a much higher life expectancy than consumer level cameras…

I have an old Canon Rebel XT given to me by my brother. This one:

What makes it special is that it has been taking a photo every thirty seconds for almost a year running my Vancouver Webcam. That’s about 2880 photos per day or 1 051 200 photos per year! Before that the camera had traveled to 30+ countries and taken at least 50 000 photos. According to the internet this model of camera doesn’t keep a running shutter count. I don’t know exactly how many photos it has taken but it’s at least one million images. That’s like having a car with a million miles on it or something?! This is a testament to good design and engineering by Canon given then camera is only rated for ~50k-100k images. It’s like the Mars rover, it refuses to die.

What shutter count can I expect from my camera?

This website has a nice little crowsourced dataset on real life shutter counts and failures: http://olegkikin.com/shutterlife/

The Nikon D300: http://olegkikin.com/shutterlife/nikon_d300.htm
(camera I’m selling)

The ol Rebel XT that refuses to die: http://olegkikin.com/shutterlife/canon_eos350d.htm

How can I check the shutter count for my Nikon DSLR?

The simplest way I’ve found to check on a Mac is to use the Preview application. Open the most recent image you’ve taken with your camera in Preview. Click on the Tools menu then click show inspector.

Then click the i button, then click Nikon button, then you should see a ’shuttercount’ number:

Your mileage may vary, I’m not sure this works on all Nikon DLSRs…

Vancouver 2010 Olympics Photos

Duncan — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 18:24:11 +0000

I shot these photos during the Vancouver 2010 Olympics. The most recent images are at the top.

There are many photos so please be patient while the page loads. Click on any image to see it on Flickr.

UPDATE: February 28th 2010
Vancouver wrapped up the Olympics today with one hell of a strong finish. Team Canada won the gold medal in one of the greatest hockey games of all time. Our 14th gold medal put us at the top of the list for most gold medals any country has ever won in the Winter Olympics. In internet parlance; we pwnd teh podium.

We’ve been talking/bitching/moaning/worrying about the Olympics for years and now they’ve come to a close. Before we get all bitter and negative about games’ legacy consider how much fun it was. Have you ever felt so connected and excitement in a city in your life?! I will fondly remember this moment in the history of Vancouver for the rest of my life. We can go back to griping about this and that later, when it’s raining and we’re having coffee together. For now, let’s take time to enjoy and be proud of how we hosted the world!

Thank yous!
First thank you to Dorothy Sliwicki. Dorothy has been working tirelessly for 2+ years on the Olympics. She was heavily involved in hiring literally hundreds of people that ended up putting the games together. Obviously she did a remarkable job in her hiring process given the games went so well. I am super proud of you Dorothy. It was a pleasure to support you during this challenging time. It was incredible get an inside glimpse at just how much work goes into a event like this. To look behind the curtain at the sheer scale of this event was mind boggling. From VANOC HQ to the backlots that the general public doesn’t see I really got a sense of just how challenging it has been to pull off. It’s way more work than you’d think. Way more. So thank you sweetheart.

Thank you Nancy for putting our schedule together and being so organized! Thank you to @airwaves1 for all the tickets etc!!!

Thank you Team Canada! Thank you Jon Montgomery for being so charismatic! You couldn’t have represented Canada any better.

Thank you to all the local photographers, videographers, twitteres, and bloggers who kept us all informed and engaged.

Thank you True North Media House for the bringing the local media together in an organized and yet decentralized fashion. I had nothing to do with #tnmh but I tagged some stuff and hope I added some value. #tnmh and #van2010 we’re arguably the best sources of Olympics information and media that we’re available during the games.

What follows is my Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics experience in photos.

I worked really hard capturing these images for you. Whether it was running as hard as I could to chase down the Torch or walking miles and miles in search of the spirit of the games. I hope I got it and that you feel it too.

Free High Resolution Mac Webcam Software

Duncan — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 21:01:31 +0000

Over on the Kitskam (my vancouver webcam) I’ve posted some free software that allows you to run a high resolution webcam. The application lets you connect a DSLR or digital camera (with ptp) to the web and upload photos at a given interval. It’s basically a web connected DSLR intervalometer that uses Amazon S3 for online storage.

Here are some screenshots:

(This is the application itself. It ain’t pretty but it works!)

(This is the preferences pane.)

So you end up being able to view near real time images like this view of Vancouver right now:

(this photo will update every 30 seconds. You’ll need to refresh the page to see a new image…)

Or you can make timelapses with it like this

I designed the software and Michael O wrote the application. You can get him to write you an app on elance if you want as well.

Download this free high resolution mac webcam software here.

Jetfighter Game

Duncan — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 20:49:57 +0000

My friend Sam made this awesome jetfighter flash game that allows you to control the game by leaning left and right (using your webcam). If you’re viewing this in your rss reader you may have to visit the site to actually see the game. Or just go here.

Here is Sam’s description of the game:

“Jetfighter J is a first person flying/shooting game in which your goal is to shoot down UFOs and collect records in order to save rock and roll. As you fly through a 3D randomly-generated fractal terrain, you have to dodge enemy missiles and avoid crashing into obstacles. What sets this game apart from the standard shooter though is the ability to use your webcam to control the jet. As one of the first Flash games to make use of your body motion as input, you can steer around hills and trees by moving your body in front of the camera. You can also play with mouse controls if you don’t have a webcam. The soundtrack is by Montreal bands The Delegates and Hollerado, and Jamie and the Boyfriends from New York.”

2009 – Year In Review

Duncan — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 18:19:25 +0000

It was a great year for Dorothy and I:

Dinner at the Wickaninnish Inn

Loungin at Whistler

Dorothy and I atop “The Chief” Mountain

Dorothy and I Smoochin

On a personal level I stopped worrying about pissing people off and avoided seeking perfection. I focused on making stuff that was just barely good enough and then iterating on that. Here are some side projects I started this year in that vein: a vancouver webcam, a weekly mixtape, and a wiki about augmented reality. They all sucked at first and continue to suck a little less over time. The point is they exist. Last year I probably never would have started them for any number of reasons.

In 2009 jettisoned lots of baggage both physically and emotionally. Physically decluttering your environment and your mind by letting stuff go feels great. More importantly I started to believe in myself again. I’m trusting my instincts and making investments accordingly.

Dorothy, Pepper, and I live in Vancouver and have designed our lifestyle such that we’re relatively untethered. Currently we’re not attached to jobs, leases, mortgages, kids, or even our location. Dorothy is working hard on the 2010 Winter Olympics and my work online is going better all the time.

The only thing stopping us from doing being completely mobile is the dog. Luckily Dorothy’s parents are happy to take her off our hands when we travel!

A Dog’s Life

I don’t do new years resolutions anymore. I used to set expectations that we’re just flat out unrealistic. I’ve never been a big partier and this morning’s reflective blog post is my own little way of bringing in the new year.

“New Year madness is a thing of quite modern making, and hardly an improvement on the tradition that long preceded it, which called for a somewhat sober, respectful and reflective morning celebration.” – Simon Winchester

As I mentioned above I’m more into to just good enough, not perfection. Instead of thinking “I want to get super fit and run a marathon this year” it’s “I want to be healthier this year by having fun doing some exercise, whenever.” It’s just a softer way to deal with yourself.

Given that, here are some things I’ve done in 2009, stopped doing in 2009, and hope to do 2010:

Things I stopped doing in 2009:

Using the same password everywhere:
A few of my websites got hacked this year because my hosting company Media Temple had a security issue. That got me to thinking more about security. I realized that I was using one or two passwords across all my accounts. I switched to using 1password with dropbox syncing and haven’t looked back. You’d be amazed at how many accounts you have when you start doing this. My 1password has 265 account passwords stored it in.

Tweeting too hard: (see year in tweets)
For a while there I was tweeting my life all all of the boring minutiae. I was also link blogging like crazy and generally adding noise online. I even had my tweets published on my blog. At some point I was like who the hell cares… So I’ve dramatically lowered the volume across all the feeds and content I produce. I respect your digital space. Less is more…

Using Voice Mail:
This may predate 2009 but I haven’t looked back since I stopped using voicemail. It was just another inbox that I had to check all the time and 99 percent of the messages we’re “hey it’s so and so, call me back”.

Trying to keep up with the fire hose:
At one point I was subscribed to like 350 RSS feeds and followed like 500 people on twitter. Today I read about 30 feeds and follow about 70 people, which is still way too much. I hope to cute rss feeds out entirely this year but this is one of my vices.

Things I started doing in 2009:

Using Virtual Assistants:
I’ve been using virtual assistants to help me in areas that I have weaknesses. Let’s just say this has been a learning experience. I’ve used oDesk to find people to do work that I can’t or don’t want to do. I’m looking into Ask Sunday as well.

Composting:
On the environmental front I decided to stop being preachy about and it and focus purely on taking personal responsibility. I’m taking personal responsibility for my footprint and doing something about it. We’ve reduced the amount of waste we put out to about one of those little white kitchen garbage bags per week. Everything else is recycled, composted, or not even purchased in the first place.

Blogging again:
I’ve starting actually blogging again. I’ve been writing reviews, posting photos, and having fun with it. Hopefully it has added some value. Did I just blog about blogging? Sheesh this post needs to end soon!

Making mixtapes:
I listen to music all day long when I’m working. I often made mixtapes for people in the past so I figured it would be fun to share them with everyone. As such Friday Mixtape was born. Now the whole world can get to know my ~~shitty~~ taste in music!

Monitoring Productivity:
Working online can often be tough when people are constantly sending you amazing things to watch or read. It’s good to know how your time is being spent… I’ve been using Rescue Time as a tool for this. You’d be amazed how much clarity this gives you into how your time is spent.

Using Moleskines Again:
Aghast the horror analog?! Yeah I’ve been using moleskines again to document stuff, scribble notes, and just keep stuff. This post about a designer who has used 85 notebooks in 26 years got me thinking about this. 25 years from now the files on my computer now won’t even be readable but a collection of moleskine will still be useful as an arhive.

Backing Up My Stuff:
My digital life and media are important to me. I’ve been looking out for a good solution but I’m kind of stuck between local and cloud based backups. I have too much stuff to backup everything to the cloud. So I backup the big stuff like video and thousands of RAW photos locally to a Drobo. Check out my Drobo review if you’re interested in those. The rest gets backed up to the cloud. Mozy is great for backing up your stuff to the cloud. You may also want to check out backupify, and Amazon s3 + Jungle Disk.

Waking up super early:
We’ve been waking up around 5:30 to get up and ‘eat your worms’ as Sean says. I wrote this post before starting work today. It’s so quiet that I can focus really well. It’s my favorite time of the day.

Organic Food:
Dorothy and I decided we didn’t care if it was more expensive to eat all organic food. After watching documentaries like Food Inc and reading about the food industry we decided to try to eat as much organic food as we can. Can you think of a better investment that your own long term health?

HDR Photography:
I learned how to create HDR photographs this year. I use photomatix software. You can check them out here.

Inbox Zero:
I work from zero in all my inboxes whether it’s snail mail or email. If there is something in an inbox, something needs to be done. My brain is then free to think about other stuff knowing things will get done. The trick is to only check them on a semi regular basis.

Things I hope to do in 2010:

Epic trip with @dorothyjs:
This is in the works. We’ll be checking out after the olympics. We’re not sure how nomadic we’ll be but we’re going away for sure.

Work:
Continue working on all my projects big and small no matter how crappy they seem at first.

Contribute more resources charity:
I’ve made 50 loans on Kiva.org to date and I’d like to increase that number. I also donated several computers to charity this Christmas to Free Geek. I think they’re doing great stuff and I’d like to volunteer for them.

Continue working to mend relationships:
Just like everything else, even if they’re broken the key is to improve upon them…

In closing here is a nice thought Justin Ritchie posted on his blog from Thom Hartmann’s Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight:

A Cree Native American storyteller and teacher told me: “According to my tradition, from the beginning of creation, every morning, when the sun comes up, we are each given four tasks by our Creator for that day. First, I must learn at least one meaningful thing today. Second, I must teach at least one meaningful thing to another person. Third, I must do something for some other person, and it will be best if that person does not even realize that I have done something for them. And fourth, I must treat all living things with respect. This spreads these things throughout the world.”

Hows that for something to live by?! Happy New Year!
