p.1 #1 · Ccnon 5D2: Setting date each time I switch battery, why?
Hello, I have a 5d2 that I don't use as often as I'd like and I recently noticed that each time I switch the battery I have to set the date and time again. The camera has ben repaired and I mind if the small "watch like" battery that's inside need to be replaced. Maybe that small battery is responsable to hold that info.
Do you have to set the date each time you switch the battery too?

I just switched the small battery and now the date remains the same when I switch the battery. But I still have a little problem, I still can't use myshuttercount.com to know the shutter counts of my camera, I receive a message that says that my camera does not record any shutter info, of course the picture was unedited. I can't use eoscount.com as I only have a mac.
I thought that replacing the small battery could fix this issue but it didn't.

depends on what you believe
I suspect only Canon can truly tell you how many activations are on the 5D II.
I also suspect those third party webistes, and programs are not accurate.
1 series bodies have an actual Canon program to determine shutter count.
only the 1 series
