An option to show all exif data #1274

Open sushimustwrite opened 11 years ago

sushimustwrite commented 11 years ago

Yes, I have Flickr in mind here. I was talking to a couple of folks who find the exif data useful. We currently show the basic camera data (what camera, focal length, and a few other things), but not much else, even as a link to interested parties. This could be available only to the user or (optionally) to the public. This could be implemented as a link below the camera data to the full exif data.

We actually need to extract more exif data probably. There's more in the db than we display but there's more in the photo than in the db.

To have this done properly we would also need to have a "reimport metadata from original" kind of feature. Not easy to do it right.

@hfiguiere Is the "reimport Metadata from original" similar to this issue (https://github.com/photo/frontend/issues/1259)?

hfiguiere commented 11 years ago

That would be the one.

jmathai commented 11 years ago

@hfiguiere / @CCOSTAN They aren't the exact same though. If we need to reindex exif data that we didn't store the first time around it's a one time crawl. Issue #1259 is an ongoing on demand reindexing of a given photo.
