Alternatively, you could also upload or link to the image (if it’s hosted online) to an online EXIF viewer such as Jeffrey’s EXIF viewer. From here, navigate to the details tab which presents most of the data in a small window. Using Windows, you could select the image in question by right clicking it and then clicking properties. With each and every shot you take with your digital camera, the camera records not only the date and time, but lots of other data including things like shutter speed, whether the flash was on or off, plus other settings used for the shot - even sometimes geo-location, especially if using a smartphone with GPS capabilities. Limited EXIF data is also stored on digital images from scanned photos, slides and negatives. No longer was the data burned onto the corner of your digital image, but rather stored behind the scenes as part of the EXIF data of your image. When digital cameras and smartphones came out, this all changed.
Many times the cameras date was also wrong, which made it all the more frustrating. However, at the time, this was the best way to catalog your photos. This was great to let you know when the photo was taken, but also left an unsightly mark on the corner of your image. EXIF stands for exchangeable image file format, and it’s basically extra data tacked onto your image.īack in the old days of film cameras, you had the option of printing a data right onto the photo itself in bright orange or red lettering.
