Various ways, I use Rawtherapee, click top right meta data, and drill down . Can take time finding the first time, but drill in there.
In linux you can use the command exiftool, parsing the shutter count, use grep,
E.g.. exiftool imagefilename I grep "Shutter Count"

Alternatively you can take a JPG with the camera and upload it to this link: https://www.pentaxforums.com/pages/check-shutter-count-exif.html

Thanks folks
whilst I'm ok with the unix I don't have a machine handy with linux, so I went with the pentax forums option
result : 36877
which feels a bit low to me, I'll have to check my image database.
just out of curiosity, does anyone know if it rolls-over at a particular value, e.g. 65536 ? (65536 = 2^16)
cheers

did forum search for this but could not find, sorry if it's been covered before and I missed it...
I gather there is a way to determined the shutter count by taking an image and inspecting the exif
could someone be kind enough to point me to a post with the method and required exif viewing software please
thanks
