When researching this last night, I came across multiple references that said the image count includes both mechanical and electronic shutter actuation, and this was a Fujifilm idiosyncrasy. I recall none saying it was mechanical only.

Hi, I'm A.W.! I'm an amateur photographer based out of Orlando, Florida. I share my photos on the Land of Flowers, an Instagram portfolio. I recently converted to Fujifilm with the X-T30, and I love it so far. Years ago, I started Nikon film cameras before moving to Nikon digital and then Canon digital. I really like the X-T30; it's very appropriate for my photography style. I'm here to learn everything I can and meet others in the Fujifilm community!

Sorry for the delay, just saw this message. I use B+W (XS-Pro MRC Nano for the ND and the Kaeseman CPL). I can’t say they are better than other brands, just that they are the ones I use. I have been satisfied with them. David

Yes it includes both MS and ES - and to make it worse - on recent cameras it includes images taken with pre-shot that might not even get written to the card - its not a good guide as to the life of the mechanical shutter. FujiFilm doesn't call it Image Count - they don't call it anything at all as they don't document their EXIF fields - the Exiftool developer - Phil Harvey - came up with that name.
