View detailed metadata and EXIF information from your images:

  • Camera make, model, and lens information
  • Camera settings: exposure, aperture, ISO, focal length
  • Date and time the photo was taken
  • GPS location data (if available)
  • Image properties: orientation, color space, resolution

🔒 Privacy: All processing happens locally in your browser. Your images are never uploaded to any server.

What It Does

An Image Metadata Viewer allows you to view detailed EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data and metadata from your images. You can see camera information (make, model, lens), camera settings (exposure, aperture, ISO, focal length), date and time the photo was taken, GPS location data (if available), and image properties (orientation, color space, resolution). This tool is read-only and privacy-focused - all metadata extraction happens locally in your browser, and your images are never uploaded to any server. Perfect for photographers who want to review camera settings, verify image properties, or check location data.

Key Features:

  • Camera information: make, model, lens details
  • Camera settings: exposure time, aperture (f-stop), ISO, focal length, flash, white balance
  • Date and time: when the photo was taken, original date, digitized date
  • GPS location: latitude, longitude, altitude with Google Maps link
  • Image properties: orientation, color space, resolution (DPI)
  • Basic file information: file name, size, type, dimensions, aspect ratio
  • Read-only viewer - no modifications to images
  • Privacy-focused - all processing in browser

Frequently Asked Questions

1 What image formats contain EXIF data?
JPEG and TIFF images commonly contain EXIF data. PNG images typically don't store EXIF data, but the tool will still show basic file information (dimensions, file size, etc.). Some cameras and phones save images as JPEG with embedded EXIF data.
2 Why don't I see EXIF data for my image?
Some images may not have EXIF data if they were processed, converted, or saved in a way that stripped the metadata. Social media platforms often remove EXIF data when images are uploaded and downloaded. The tool will still show basic file information even if EXIF data is missing.
3 Is my location data visible to others?
The tool only displays location data that is already embedded in your image file. If you're concerned about privacy, you can remove EXIF data from images before sharing them using image editing software or EXIF removal tools.
4 Can I edit or remove metadata with this tool?
No, this is a read-only viewer. It only displays metadata - it cannot modify or remove EXIF data. To remove metadata, you would need to use image editing software or specialized EXIF removal tools.
5 Are my images uploaded to a server?
No! All metadata extraction happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your images are never uploaded to any server, transmitted over the internet, or stored anywhere. This ensures complete privacy and security.
6 What if the EXIF library doesn't load?
If the EXIF library fails to load, the tool will still display basic file information (file name, size, dimensions, aspect ratio). However, detailed camera settings and GPS data require the EXIF library to be available.
