Exif data editor. Photo metadata editors

Photo Exif Editor - Exif editor allows you to view, modify and delete Exif data of your photos
EXIF - this abbreviation should definitely be familiar to photographers, since it is in the photo that there is special meta-data, which indicates not only information from the camera itself (shutter speed, exposure, camera model, etc.), but you can also specify personal data from the author ( more detailed information see Wikipedia). To edit this metadata on a PC, it is enough to download and install any utility, of which there are now many, but on Android there are just one or two such tools. Photo EXIF \u200b\u200bEditor allows you to easily edit this data in any photo.

On the main screen you will find 4 buttons, each of which will allow you to select one of the photos. The first button that might interest you is PhotoMap. With its help, you can see all the marks on the map, not based on the photos that you took (this is provided that in the device's camera settings you have chosen the option of recording geotags in metadata). The next two buttons, Browse and Gallery, will allow you to quickly find the desired photo, only the first one opens file managerand the second is a gallery. The last button launches the camera and then allows you to instantly change the metadata. The editor itself is very simple and you just need to click on the field to edit it. If you just want to delete any data from the photo, then click on the special Remote EXIF \u200b\u200bbutton. All entered data is saved immediately.

The application has no settings, it works perfectly and without any complaints. Photo EXIF \u200b\u200bEditor perfectly coped with the task and we can safely say that at the moment it is one of the best in Google play (competitors are very, very bad).

Features::

Photographers probably know about the Exif data stored in each graphic file... As a rule, they contain information about the date the photo was taken, the device with which the photo was taken, and much other information. It often happens that it is the Exif data of a graphic file that allows you to find out more information about its creator. Today we will consider a small free utility, which allows not only viewing and editing Exif data and EXIF \u200b\u200bGPS, but also exporting and importing them into XML files.

Surely many users will not be satisfied with the number of editable Exif data tags in Exif Farm Free. In this case, the developers have provided the ability to export Exif data that is not edited directly in the program, to a CSV or XML file. To do this, also, as described at the beginning of the article, open the menu for the file in Explorer, and select the item Export Exif / Iptc Info... The file will be saved in the same folder where the image is stored.

Then we edit the XML file with the Exif data of the photo in any text editor or specialized utilities... After that, it remains only to erase the Exif data in the graphic file ( Clear Exif / Iptc / Xmp Info) and import them from the edited CSV or XML file ( Import Exif / Iptc Info).

Characteristics:
Interface language: English
OS: Windows XP, Vista, 7
File size: 5.3 MB
License: free, there is paid version for batch processing of files

Initial data - a bunch of photos.

A task - quickly remove unnecessary tags in these photos and prescribe to all same tag (the address of the site where the pictures will be).

No problem - I thought. And I got into the Internet in search of a free program for editing exif and iptc - tags.

Small educational program
EXIF - Exchangeable Image File Format is a metadata standard for media files. It's like id3 tags for mp3 files. You can register authorship, comments. Cameras and phones register there information about shooting conditions, shutter speed, aperture, coordinates, etc. The photo programs register themselves there, your beloved one, your login on the computer, and information about the PC itself (well, they don't keep your physiognomy while looking at the photo :).
It is this information that needs to be deleted at once from all photos and register for all your necessary information.

Programs that show tags and allow you to change them - a carriage and a small cart. But the batch mode is already mainly for additional money.

And the most surprising thing was that it turned out to be free and already installed on the PC.
It - windows explorer... Yes!

Open the photo folder in the explorer. Select the necessary pictures, right mouse button, properties and go to the "Details" tab:

To remove all tags - click below "Delete properties and personal information". A window will appear where you can choose what to delete. For everything - Select all:

And to write some information to all files at once, fill in the required fields:

And you're done.

"Use what is at hand and do not look for something else" - as Phileas Fogg said.

Well, I also found the program -

Today we will answer the following questions: what is EXIF \u200b\u200bdata and where can it be viewed. Why is this information needed and how useful are hidden metadata written in images by digital camera automation? - This and something else will be discussed in the text.

Every photographer knows that any frame has hidden information about itself. This data is, in essence, an image passport. It is hidden in an EXIF \u200b\u200bfile (English abbreviation - Exchangeable Image File Format) - in the format of recording metadata, a kind of miniature copy of a file that comments on it, designates authorship, describes the conditions of creation and much more, in fact, revealing its properties. The standard was developed by the Japanese company JEITA (Japan Electronic Industry Development Association) more than ten years ago. EXIF was originally calculated so that printers would accurately reproduce colors from the original image when printed.

Today, a digital camera, at the time of taking a picture, automatically prescribes detailed information about a photograph in an EXIF \u200b\u200bfile, which can be used by both the person himself and various devices that work with images. The information includes the model name of the camera, camera settings at the time the shutter was released, image dimensions, shooting date, and much more.

Why is EXIF \u200b\u200bimportant for a photographer?

With the appearance in human life digital cameras a lot has changed: the availability of viewing the result obtained, the costs and time for printing have decreased, there is an opportunity not to limit yourself in the number of frames without harming the wallet, you can instantly exchange the resulting image and send it even to the ends of the world in seconds via the Internet, etc. But another significant difference between a film and a digital image is that the latter contains all the information about the shooting parameters. And it is stored in the EXIF \u200b\u200bfile of each photo. And now anyone can analyze the quality of the images. EXIF data such as aperture, shutter speed, focal length, ISO, white balance, flash, etc. are especially important when they are needed for educational purposes. For example, when shooting the same subject under different exposure conditions, you can appreciate / see the difference.

Answering the above question, I want to summarize that the EXIF \u200b\u200bimage is needed in order to know under what conditions the image was created. And the photographer can use the data on it to analyze and improve his skills. For example, engaged in self-development in order to become a successful wedding photographer and professionally engage in photography, you will want under what parameters this or that venerable photographer, who posted his work on the Internet, took the picture that interests you.

How can I view additional information about a photo?

This is quite easy to do. In the operating room windows system Vista (both XP and Seven) You should click right click mouse on the selected photo, in the window that appears, find "Properties", then open the "Details" tab. The process looks like this:

In general, web browsers can read EXIF \u200b\u200binformation graphic editor, specialized programs. So when buying a camera, you will surely find softwarecreated for specific model camera, which will not only allow you to view images, but also open access to EXIF \u200b\u200bdata. However, I don't like working with such a product. And since purchasing my first Canon EOS 10D DSLR camera, I have never, with any serious intention, used the special software kindly provided by Canon.

However, two the above methods viewing EXIF \u200b\u200binformation have a significant drawback. And it lies in the fact that you cannot carry out a comparative analysis of several images at the same time. In this case, "EXIF Pilot Pro" (or "EXIF Pilot" - old version) - a product from the company "Two Pilots". Quite a handy utility for analyzing, editing and creating shooting parameters. There is a version for Windows and Macintosh.

The program is easy to operate. On the left is a folder column, in the center there is a list of images, on the right is a preview window, at the bottom of which EXIF \u200b\u200bdata can be edited in batch mode... The benefits of the program include support for almost everyone graphic formats (JPEG, TIFF, PNG, DNG, NEF, PEF, CRW, JP2, CR2, MRW, ARW, SR2, ORF, RAF, PSD) and the ability to read various EXIF \u200b\u200binformation tags.

I will also mention one more product - ACDSee PhotoManager, because many people use it to work with a large volume of images and somehow catalog them. This graphic editor allows you to perform a lot of manipulations with images, but it is important for us to learn how to read EXIFs. Opening a folder with photos in it and selecting a picture, right-click on it and click on "Properties". On the right, a new window "Properties - Database" opens. At the bottom, find a third tab called "EXIF" and you get what you are looking for. In the same place just below you can always switch to the "Arrangement Panel" and to the "Properties" panel. You will find that some of the EXIF \u200b\u200binformation fields are different in color: some are white, others are gray. The last ones cannot be edited, but the white ones can be changed by double-clicking on them.

EXIF and Internet browsers: EI, Opera, MF and Google Chrome.

As for internet browsers, keep in mind:

Internet Explorer is not at all interested in the problem of displaying EXIF, throwing it into a landfill. But in Yandex-Photos there is still an opportunity to view the data.

Opera developers, on the contrary, are quite loyal to the needs of photographers. You just need to right-click on the image as usual and select its properties, and EXIF \u200b\u200bwill open.

IN Mozilla Firefox a little more complicated, here, if necessary, you need to install a plugin. It is done like this: in the file line, look for "Tools" - "Add-ons" - "Search for add-ons". Then, there in the search bar, ask for EXIF \u200b\u200band click on "Add to Firefox". It will be either FxIF or Exif Viewer 1.55.

IN Google chrome, as well as in Firefox, you should additionally install the plugin to display hidden information: Exponator. The tool allows you to independently adjust the parameters with which the image data you need will be displayed. You can find the plugin at the link: https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/npdclakkbcpndnjlnajapdlbdncpijdg?hl\u003dru
