Exif Viewer

<p>Hello,<br>

I am looking for a version of the Exif-Viewer as an add-on for Chrome, which it's possible with to see the camera info right when moving the mouse over a foto. Has anybody got an idea?<br>

All the Best, Vincent</p>

<p>You can search for exif viewers at the Chrome store at <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/apps">https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/apps</a></p>

<p>There seem to be a few available.</p>

<p>I use EXIF Viewer (now at version 2.3.1) with Chrome. It's a simple, basic EXIF viewer that works great. However it inserts a tiny pale blue camera shaped icon into the lower right corner of photos, so if that bothers you look for another extension. When I want more detailed metadata I use Jeffrey's Exif viewer online. </p>

<p>You want to see the EXIF data for every (JPEG) image on every web page you view just because the mouse passed over it? Sounds intrusive! Wouldn't it get in the way of web sites that implement links with mouseover images?<br />

<br />

I've tended to download the image and then use either Photoshop or ImageMagick's "identify -verbose" tool, but I guess I've not wanted to do this to a huge number of images on-line at once. If I did, I'd probably wget the web page(s) I was looking at and identify the downloaded images in a script. But then I'm a geek...</p>

<p>I don't mind the little blue camera - it's telling me there <em>is</em> Exif in the image.</p>

<p>It's not an automatic mouseover though, it's a "select 'View Exif' from the right mouse-click context menu" deal, which is how I want it.</p>

 

<p>so do you know any viewer which has a mouse-over function?</p>

<p>Sorry Philip, I've never looked - I agree with Andrew that it sounds like it would be obtrusive and annoying.</p>

<p>Vincent/Philip: Can you share what you're trying to achieve with this? Just in case we can suggest a better solution. Making the web browser do this for all JPEGs would heavily cripple it for general browsing use, so there may be a better way.</p>
