Title: Jpeg comments
Post by: Parts on July 19, 2011, 09:19:31 AM
I recently discovered all the other info stored in jpegs, yes I tend to be slow at times :tard:,  and find it all very interesting.  Some newer cameras even post GPS info along with all the other stuff.  A lot of the time it's all erased but when it's there I find it adds a whole new dimension  to the photo.

Non-techie question:  How do you access said info?

Hmmm, I'm using Windows 7, so it may be different on other systems. But it's usually in the properties. If not, there are EXIF metadata readers out there.

 Thanks, I have Vista myself, maybe that explains it.   :chin:

If it's not called Details, it's Summary on older versions of Windows. It should be there, if not, just select tabs until you start seeing a list of details like Width, Height, Copywrite, Camera Model, etc.

 Cool, thank you, I may poke around, what harm could come of it?   :techprob:

I use the FastStone Image Viewer most of the time lately it's free and very good for sorting large numbers of photos.  I downloaded it off of Cnet
