first dslr .. d5100

[shot]

My first DSLR the d5100 has arrived. I am very excited.

I am very new to the DSLR photography and currently trying to learn in manual mode.

I had one question, since I bought the camera refurbished, how do I check the current shutter release count on the camera ?

Thanks in advance.
