Under "Advanced Photo" on the 'Properties' => 'Details' Button, I'd like to include reference to which lens was used in the metadata. Is there a way to do this?

Are you talking about on the camera? or seeing it once you are in post processing. The EXIF data includes that information

We need a little more detail as to where you are trying to see this information.

OP is asking about looking at EXIF via Windows Explorer, methinks... Right-click on an image file, click on Properties from the context menu and go to the Details tab.

Y'all;

I wish I could be more specific ... when I click on a pic in my file after d/loading from my camera to a file, I can click on Properties, Details and get a print of the metadetails. It doesn't include the subheading under Advanced which I assume must include lens manufacturer and etc. Those entries aren't included and I don't know why.

What are you using for post processing There are also free standing programs that will read the EXIF data. Just google for EXIF Data viewer.

If you're using an un-chipped lens, there won't be any metadata.

I'm curious what circumstances that would apply to?

Here is a D300 picture taken just now WITHOUT ANY LENS AT ALL (empty open lens mount).

dsf_7184.jpg


The Exif is in the file (as output by Photoshop), and it looks pretty normal, except it reports the selected No CPU lens menu. That menu would be an old 55mm f/3.5 lens converted to AI, however, there was no lens currently on the camera.

The Exif below is reported by ExifTool.

Windows Explorer Properties also reports some of it too (its normal action, but no lens info).

You've got an unchipped lens programmed into the camera. The camera will default to that as it assumes that's what you've got mounted.

You'll have to help me to answer your question. All I know is, when I click on a pic in my Windows 10 file to which I downloaded from my D3200, I get a print-out/window. For example, the heading says; DSC_0136. Under that are 4 options: General, Security, Details, Previous Versions. When I click on Details, I get all the essential info about the camera and the settings. The last Category of info is under the heading "Advanced Photo". This includes a reference to Lens Maker and Lens Model. These are blank.

Way down on this heading is an entry "EXIF Version 0230".

Is any of this helpful?

Rod: You are in the Context Menu for the file you clicked on (see screenshot below).

Not all of the metadata your camera generates will show up here. This is just how Windows displays, or does not display, this data. You can manually add information in some of the text fields if you want. If want to see ALL the metadata your camera is generating, including the data the Windows context-menu is not displaying, you will need to use a different application to display the EXIF data. There are several applications that will do this.

Thanks a bunch. I have been adding lens ifo manually. But it's a PITA. The overlap between lens mm info is a bit confusing in some instancesl; eg. 28-55. 55-200, 105 MACRO, isn't always obvious days after shooting. I hoped the metadata would solve this for me.

I guess my question is: do other Nikonites know which application I should use to capture this data?

Most likely the information IS being captured. It's that the Windows context menu is not displaying it.

There are several applications that will let you see this information. One of them is IRFanview, a free image viewer/editor.

Another free application that will get the job done (on JPG's only) would be Acute EXIF Viewer.

The Windows explorer menu is not the best place to get that kind of information. The EXIF data that your camera adds to each photo is just not available in there. What I mean about PostProcessing software is what if any software do you use to enhance your photos Things like adjust the brightness or crop the photo. These kinds of programs will show you so much information about each shot like the Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO, lens used, If it was a zoom lens then what MM you were zoom to.

What you are asking for is the wrong thing. The information you are wanting it just not going to be there .

I d/loaded IRFanview but I can't locate the 'switch' to show EXIF data. There is a toolbar
icon for Properties/Settings but it doesn't provide data... just a menu of options that don't appear to apply.

Irfanview menu Image - Information - Exif. Shows Exif.

And then, a bonus, if your image Exif contains GPS location (cell phones typically do), there will be a button there show location on Google maps.
