That did it!!
Thanks, Peter, Godfrey and Rod.
(actually, I had stumbled onto it once, but couldn't recall the path).

in PSE 3 (hopefully they haven't changed it later):
File -> File Info (in the Editor) or
Window -> Properties -> Metadata tab (in the Organizer)

however the latter apparently only works with JPEGs.

Cheers,

Peter

Every RAW file from the camera contains metadata, some of which is  
EXIF data.
Every JPEG file from the camera contains EXIF metadata.

The EXIF data is embedded in the image file, you need an application  
to view it. On Mac OS X, opening any JPEG from the camera with the  
Preview application allows me to use the command "Tools->Get Info"  
and browse all the embedded EXIF data.

I don't have PSE5. In Photoshop CS2, for any open file you can use  
the command "File->File Info..." and a dialog will come up displaying  
the metadata, including the EXIF data.

There are a lot of other utility programs available that will do the  
same thing. A quick search should find one for you in a hurry.

The EXIF data is embedded into the header of the image file as the
shot is written to the card. It being available or not shouldn't be an
issue given a simple file transfer or import. Pretty much the only way
it can not be available is if it's specifically stripped from the file
or not carried through by an editor/post processing application.

Generally when you view at the "file information" using any decent
image editing/viewing application the EXIF data will be available.

EXIF Data Availability?

2007-04-12 Thread Jack Davis
I am using PSE 5. I'm wondering if EXIF data are available as a result
of downloading RAW/jpg shots from a memory card.
PSE 5 "HELP" defines it, but doesn't answer my question.
IOW, if it's recorded, where do I find it?
Low tech answer please. :)
Thanks!

Jack
