🔒 exiftool

information about EXIF metadata from files.

exiftool is a program for extracting Exif metadata from different file formats. Metadata shown may vary depending on the file type, and given the nature of Exif metadata, some fields may appear or not. This information is only available for Premium API users

  • example: fields from Microsoft Windows PE files.
