File Description | EXIF is a standard that specifies the formats for images, sound, and additional tags used by digital cameras, smartphones, scanners and other systems handling image and sound files. EXIF is typically the data file that contains information about an image shot with a digital camera. The information may include aperture, exposure, ISO, focal length, flash on/off, camera model, shutter speed, and so on. EXIF data is usually stored within the same file as the image data and can often be viewed in many image applications while the image is open. However, EXIF data may also be separately stored or extracted to a ".exif" file extension. |
