Put Metadata Where It Belongs!

Just in time for Australia Day, the Microsoft Photo Info tool has been released

The tool allows for quick and easy editing of photo metadata from inside Windows Explorer.

Features

  • View or edit photo metadata from inside Windows Explorer. Now, advanced image properties are at your fingertips from within Windows.
  • Edit images individually, or as a collection. Photo Info has two edit modes: individual and collection, making it easy to update many images at the same time.
  • Quick recall of recent entries. For some properties, Photo Info remembers the most recent entries you have typed. To recall a recent entry, click on the drop down arrow and select it from the list.
  • Generate copyright notice automatically. Photo Info can generate a standard copyright notice automatically from the Author and date Created information, if present.
  • Quick recall of location details. To help save time when entering location information, Photo Info can save location details under a name you provide. Recall these details by selecting the location name from the drop-down menu.
  • Correct EXIF capture date / time information. Photo Info can optionally update the EXIF date/time information as recorded in the image file by your camera. You can use this feature to correct the file capture date if your camera's clock was set incorrectly (for example, to the wrong time zone).
  • View EXIF properties. Click on the Details tab to view common EXIF properties. Click on More properties for additional details.
  • Preview the image. To see a larger preview of the image, double-click on the thumbnail.
  • Enhanced hover tips. Hover tips have been enhanced for JPEG, TIFF and other supported file types in Windows Explorer.
  • Custom column properties. In Windows Explorer when viewing a folder in Details view, additional sort properties are available for supported image types.

Download Microsoft Photo Info tool now! It works on Windows XP and Windows Vista

Don't see the connection with Australia Day? Bear with me.

Those photos you submit to Look Up And Smile Photo Competition can have nice metadata.

  • Upload the photo on to this website from January 26 - February 16, 2007.

I would love to see photos from Aussies all over the world celebrating Australia Day - Phil, Jason, Jeremy, Iain, Tom - I hope you fly the flag
