adding exif data to scanned film
in [Digital Cameras]

From: nick on 29 Oct 2009 14:26 I have scanned some negatives and wondered if there is any way to add exif data to it. All I want to add is the date the photo was taken.

From: nick on 29 Oct 2009 16:13 Err, thanks, but I downloaded it and a dialogie box told me I had been using "Stufit" for 865 days more than the evaluation period allows and that I should pay to be able to use it! I am mistifoed by this as I have never heard of "Stufit"! Any other suggestions?

From: nick on 29 Oct 2009 16:18 Apologies, I just found Stufit on my pc, apparently I had downloaded it more than two years ago. I have now removed it. I will see about downloading it agin tomorrow. Cheers.

Any other suggestions? first of all, stuffit expander is free, only the full suite requires payment. second, the windows version of exiftool is in a standard zip archive and windows xp and later can unzip files directly without any need for additional software. the unix version of exiftool, which is probably what you downloaded, is a gzipped tarball and i suspect windows doesn't know what to do with that and handed it off to stuffit. the mac version of exiftool is a standard dmg disk image, but that won't help you much if you are on a pc. |
