I'm looking at (possibly used) Canon 1d/20d/1d mk2 cameras, and I've noticed that people list the number of actuations. How do you check the number on these cameras?

I started a thread about the 1D series cameras and total actuations, here. (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?p=101700&posted=1#post101700) Unfortunately the software is no longer free, but it looks like it does more.

I have read some users find a number in the EXIF data and can figure it out from there, but I could never find a definite answer on how to do it. I don't know about checking on a 20D.

I found information on the link above, but no one seems to know about the 20d yet.
