Could you clarify what you just said?

If you FireFox, you can download several addons including "EXIF Viewer" which I use too look at EXIF Data while browsing FM.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EXIF for more information on EXIF data.

I use http://ted.mielczarek.org/code/mozilla/fxif/ as firefox plug-in to check EXIF data.

One thing to keep in mind is that not every image will have EXIF data embedded. A digital camera will add the information to the image but that doesn't mean the EXIF data will survive image processing. Older image software doesn't recognise EXIF, so if you edit an image and do a Save As, the EXIF data gets stripped. More modern software offers the option to keep the EXIF data or strip it from the image.

In other words, there is no guarantee that you'll find EXIF data in an image.

Well, when someone submits a pic in the weekly assignments, and other pics, it would be easy if they can submit the EXIF data as well.

Spending a fair amount of time on the WA board, I can tell you that probably at least 70% would be more than happy to share exif if asked, many will even share their lighting arrangement (for indoor shots) and some even their photoshop process.

A quick way to get the info is with an exif viewer though.
