The goal of the EXIF ID data lost by Lightroom CC (March 17 April 29, 2016)

There was an update CC 17/03/2016 after where one of my photos copied to Lightroom has lost part of their lens metadata ID (it keeps the focal distance and knows the model for purposes of lens corrections but cannot identify the purpose in the metadata).

There was a CC update 29/04/2016 according to which these data are now correctly copied from the camera, however copied photos between 17/03/2016 and 29/04/2016 still reportedly missing lens EXIF identifier.

I was very disappointed to see the update 29/04/2016 only solves the problem of lens metadata in the future but does not deal with the time period where the image data has been corrupted by Lightroom CC.  I now have thousands of photos showing as 'Unknown target' in the metadata filter...

QUESTION: Is it possible for these data EXIF be replaced while I can sort the attributes of type of lens? (NB: I WANT A SOLUTION WITHOUT HAVING TO BUY SOFTWARE THIRD...) I already pay for a monthly subs to Lightroom CC and hope that it works as expected and if it caused damage of software bugs to Adobe data offer a solution).

Please read these instructions

  • LR does not update changed the EXIF data

    I imported a bunch of photos of LR and subsequently added to GPS information for raw files using Canon card utility. The GPS info is there (I checked in the dialog box information on the file in the Finder), but LR doesn't! I don't mind reimport the files to get the GPS data that is recognized, but it seems that the only way to do is to remove the images from the catalog, which means losing the settings that I already had on them. Y at - it an option to update the EXIF data in LR without this drastic measure?

    Then select one of the photos to which you've added the GPS data and make metadata > read metadata file.   This will read the metadata to raw files in the LR catalog without losing your changes. but any changes you have made in metadata in LR - words - keys, legend, - will be lost.

    Going further, why not use module card LR instead?

    In addition, if you have never metadata > save metadata to file, or your turn on the option changes automatically write in XMP, then for these photos, LR metadata read/write from sidecar .xmp file (a file with the same base name of that image, but with the .xmp extension), rather than the file raw itself.

    In addition, many people are also wary of editing raw files, because each manufacturer has its own format owner (so the reason of .xmp sidecar).  In your case, no doubt you use utility of Canon to change the Canon raw files, while the risk is mitigated.

  • Modify the Exif data

    Hello world!
    I'm having some trouble surrounding the metadata on some images in my library of images.

    I just started working at a new company and their library of images is a mess. I worked on the automation of a project I've worked on, but so that it works properly, I need to access the metadata for the images that I work with.


    Here's the problem; Many of their images have the date stored in the tab 'base' in 'File Info', but they don't have anything in the exif data. Is their no way to automate Photoshop or bridge (or possibly Automator or Applescript) to fill in the exif data based on the "Date of creation" of in the Basic tab?

    I am at a loss here, there are more than 30,000 images to treat so typing manually for each image is not really an option (I really hope that I am not obliged)

    I really appreciate any help and suggestions.

    Thank you all!

  • Dates of the EXIF - how add/edit using exiv2... is there a better way?

    Hello world!

    INTRO: I'm new to Lightroom. I went through a few books and a lot of tutorial on lynda and youtube, so I feel very uncomfortable with the LR 5 import process. This post and the issue is a matter of pre-importation / organizational.

    I have more than 30,000 photos old, digitized (scanned) which dates back to the 1950s. Of course, most are taken with older, analog devices. They are now organized in folders by date.

    AIM: I want to import those pictures into LR and be able to find the dates of metadata (Capture Date & time).

    PROBLEM: Of course, scanned old (or even more recent manipulated) pictures often do not have the correct creation date of EXIF information. Worse, many (or most) of these old images don't even have a date field EXIF!

    What I've LEARNED: Immediately to use exiv2 file name or name file evix2 - pt indicates whether it is or is not info date for the photo. Otherwise, exiv2 - pt filename shows nothing. If there is a date field EXIF, it will be shown.

    For all these pictures with no date field, if I import them into Lightroom, there is of course no date information that is displayed in the Panel (by default or EXIF) metadata, and you can change the date (because the field is not there).

    If exiv2 - pt filename indicates the field of Exif.Image.DateTime, then in Lightroom, you will see the time of Capture and Date of Capture fields, and you will see an icon to the right of these dates, which allows you to change this date.

    Exiv2 - pt filename if no IS NOT this Exif.Image.DateTime field, you can ADD this domain by using the command line:

    "" exiv2 - M ' Exif.Image.DateTime 1965:01:25 15:45 Ascii value "file name (or whatever your time/date).

    Now, if you import this image in LR, you will find the fields Date of Capture and capture in metadata > default Panel... AND you can change them if necessary. In other words, the command above-M exiv2 added the date field EXIF than LR needs to search by date.

    WHAT is MY point of VIEW, AND WHAT the QUESTION is? I have no problem using exiv2 for add/edit an EXIF DateTime field creating a folder at a time prior to importation in LR. This will allow me to search on these date fields *.

    My question is this: is there an easier way?

    Surely there must be dozens (hundreds?) of thousands of photographers 'old' like me who have found old photos with incorrect fields EXIF creation date or missing the date on the ground completely (in which case, as I said earlier, can not be added/edited using LR, PS, FileMultiTool, Graphic Converter, etc..).

    I realize that I could look at images based on file names or file, or I could enter dates in tags, but these methods to find images are not nearly as practical the use of metadata. So, if I know that an image was taken in June 1962, then I would like to that metadata EXIF to have this info so that I can get on this subject. Have no field of EXIF date or have a date field that is incorrect is useless.

    I would love a LOT YOUR FEEDBACK! If there is a way easier or better, I'd love to help you! It is has so many photographers experienced on this forum, and more than probably a lot of them have old photos with the date fields incorrect or missing EXIF they brought in LR.

    Thank YOU! I'll appreciate really any help you can offer.

    David

    * there are other EXIF date fields that can be changed using exiv2: Exif.Photo.DateTimeOriginal , Exif.Photo.DateTimeDigitized , etc. But the main date that LR uses to search for files is described above.



    P.S. I also tried jhead-filename ds1965:01:25 (or whatever your date) to change the date. This only works IF there is already a date field this EXIF. Otherwise, jhead will report an error and not create a. Exiv2 - M will create the field.


    When I put the date and time for about 10 pictures, menu option assigned LR (seemingly random) time to each of them. Why LR do this? I can see perhaps compensate for each photo in 1 second (00, 01, 02,...), but simply assign random times makes no sense at all. At least in testing, I have just done, LR did not pass during the same amount, but totally affected times (randomly?) to each photo.

    Normally, when you change the time of the capture of several photos, LR shifts each picture the difference between the time that you register and the time of the most selected photo.

    I suspect you're tripping over a bug known to the LR with digital photos that are EXIF:DateTime but not EXIF:DateTimeOriginal.  In this case, LR indicates a time below the thumbnail, but uses the other for its internal capture time.  In this case, things can get very confusing.  The best way to clean, it's to make sure that all your photos are EXIF:DateTimeOriginal before you import it.

  • Remove the Exif data with using "save for Web".

  • Any way to change/replace the EXIF data such as the date of the photo?

    I import into Lightroom several thousand photos I took with my first digital camera, in 2000-2004. Everything went very smoothly. But here's my problem:

    In my old workflow, I spent the time of photo montage liquidated as TIF files, and stripped of any program that I used to edit the EXIF from them. Thus, for example, a photo that was taken on March 4, 2001 has the information EXIF showing it was taken on March 10, 2001, the date on which I edited and made the TIF. All other EXIF data is stripped as well, the data on exposure, lens information, ISO, if the flash is triggered, etc.. Basically, the TIF file seems to have no other than my name and the size of the file EXIF data.

    I can't live without the other info, really, but the change of information on the initial date/time means that the TIF file is not sort next to the original file in Lightroom, which I want to do. There are not thousands of photos that I have hair, a few hundred maximum.

    Is it possible with a plugin or an external program to copy EXIF information in the original program and insert it in the TIF file?

    To change the date to use the Edit capture time option located under library > metadata menu.

  • The EXIF data (or metadata) can be manipulated in LR?

    The EXIF data (or metadata) can be manipulated in LR?

    Essentially LR does not have EXIF data, there are a few exceptions, you can for example change the date in the EXIF, EXIF data are part of the original file and LR is none destructive and does not make any changes to the original file, with this exception. If you really want to change the EXIF data, you will need to do it outside of LR by using an EXIF Editor.  Regarding the other metadata goes, that's exactly what LR did. It will read and write metadata in its catalog and file or a file in the case of propitiatory RAW formats. He writes these metadata in xmp format.

  • Test and validate the Exif data

    Very well. A case of beer for the first person to get it (to come to Johannesburg for do it well!)

    I must write an application that allows to extract the EXIF data for photos uploaded on the server and stores it in a database.  So I try the following:

    < cfimage action = "read" source = "" #file.serverfile # "name ="image"/ >"
    < cfset exif = ImageGetEXIFMetaData (image) >
    < cfdump var = "#exif #" >
    < cfquery name = "blah" datasource = "#dsn" >
    Insert pictures (focal_length) values (#focallength #) where blah blah fishpaste.
    < / cfquery >

    Problem solved, right? Fake!  The dump file is for me a bunch of variables such as 'Exposure time' and 'Value Max of openness'.  (Note the spaces).    I need to isolate this 'exposure time' and the variables 'Max aperture value '.

    < cfset focallength = ImageGetExifTag (image, "Focal length") / >
    < cfoutput > #focallength # < / cfoutput >

    Whoo Hoo!


    But now, what happens if a malicious fool downloads a file WITHOUT exif data? OOPS!  This is where I'm stuck - how to test for the variable?  How to test if this variable exists?  Easy, just do it without spaces.  How do WITH that space between 'focal' and 'length '?  I have 'isdefined' my way to hell for breakfast without any luck!

    PS: an end, I am tired, and has already had three beers!

    This can be done:

  • How to integrate my name in the EXIF data for multiple image at the time Bridge CS3

    I tried to figure out how to do it for a while and just can't figure out how to get my the first two images and JPEG to show my name in the EXIF of the right of author or author entry when you enter in the dialog box "File Info" box so that it displays high display EXIF data using EXIF Viewer or in Bridge CS3.

    Can I get help on this? Point me to a tutorial or something?

    I already read bridge help and it is written in such a way that is not very clear to me on how to do it.

    Thank you for your help on this.

    Don't know what you mean with the get info part, but you can make a model

    for metadata, you want to appear in all the files.

    In the metadata high Panel on the right is a small triangle that if you click on it

    Displays a context menu. Inherent choose Create a metadata template. Fill it out

    desired fields and save it as a proper name.

    The model now shows in the submenu even as above as a submenu with append

    or replace the metadata model.

    If you select al files and use the model metadata to add all the files

    you will get your author about this model. Beware that the addition of this model

    some info in other areas or keywords can disappear. Just do a

    test on some files that you already have a return to the top of.

    Using the Adobe Photodownloader within Bridge you have the option of

    Add this template in the files when you download them from the card reader,

    see Advanced options for this.

    show my name in the EXIF data of the right of author or author entry when you enter it in the

  • Need help to extract the Exif data

    I can't wrap my brain on how to get an individual item in a generated table. Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a script that will read all the information of an image file's exif header. It traverses the list and display each element exif very well. If I keep stuck trying to extract specific items such as copyright, artist, and description. I took the script out of the php.net site and I understand well enough how it works completely.

    Can someone break it down by the measures taken by the script? I think that if I understood it better that I could figure out how to get what I need. For example, should I loop through the $exif table before I can point to the specific exif info I want? I also don't understand the exif_read_data() function parameters (I read what php.net, but it is clear to me).

    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • The batch change date and time

    I have a lot of photos which, for some reason, have lost their correct dates and hours of creation, so I was eager to correct in an easy and enjoyable way.  I unfortunately discovered that Photos is not the batch option to change that used to be in iPhoto.

    When you try to find a solution to my problem, I fell on this batch Change Date and time on a fixed Date, which works well, but not quite how I want it.  What I want to do, that's exactly what the script above does, but rather than increment by 1 minute of each photo, I want to increment by 1 second intervals by photo.

    Having not really used AppleScript before, I tried to change the references to the 'minutes' to 'seconds' but that did not work.  Is it possible to do using above seconds instead of minutes?

    Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    Just delete the text "" * minutes ' in the lines where the date is changed. "

    Then time will be incremented seconds.

    For example, for the first version of the script use:

    the value timeIncrement to 1 - increment of time in seconds

    (* select at least 2 images in Photos *)

    say application 'Photos '.

    activate

    game imageSel for (get selection)

    if ({ is } imageSel) or (the length of imageSel < 2) then

    error "Please select at least two images."

    on the other

    defined first_image to the point 1 of the imageSel

    the value first_date to (the date of first_image) as date of

    Repeat with I from 2 to the County of imageSel

    put next_image to the point I of imageSel

    the value next_date to (the date of next_image) as date of

    the value time_difference to (first_date - next_date) + ((i-1) * timeIncrement)

    say next_image

    the value le Date of next_image to (next_date + time_difference) as date of

    end say

    end Repeat

    end if

    return "Set the date and time of" & (the length of the imageSel) & 'photos. The last date is "& ((the date of next_image) as date)"

    end say
