XnViewMP is not capable of this.

But you can use Advanced Renamer instead, to include Nikon's ShutterCount tag in the rename.

I hope this helps...

Yes this works.

I used in the renaming method the following expression: Z8-<ExifTool:Shuttercount>

And this works.

Thanks again.

Good. I have hopes that XnViewMP can be enhanced to support better EXIF tags in the future, both in the app and as part of renaming like you're doing here.
