Image metadata reader

Images

Read an image's format, dimensions, frames and colour details, plus EXIF camera data, date taken and GPS location.

What it does

  • Camera, lens and exposure settings
  • Date taken and GPS location
  • Dominant colours and how much of the image each covers

Good for

  • Sorting photos by date
  • Privacy checks before publishing
  • Colour themes from images
