I tried to patent this many years ago and found Kodak was already assigned.

The base idea is either an overflow counter.

Altenative is a rate counter instead of a fixed bucket.

Either way we get a number that can not max out.

You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.
