What is EXIF Data

EXIF means Exchangeable Image File Format. EXIF data is a photo's hidden diary, storing all the details about how and when a picture was taken. It records information like the camera type, settings (like shutter speed and aperture), date, time, and even the location if your camera's into sharing secrets with GPS.

These details are super helpful for photographers who want to learn from their shots or sort them easily. If you're sharing your work online, EXIF data can prove you're the original author of an image. All smartphones also record EXIF metadata. Whenever you post an image on social media or simply share it with friends, other people can access photo metadata.
