Wanna know what lens i used

[cruncher75]

Hi is there a programme out there that will tell me what lens/camera i used if i upload my picture to it.

Try oPanda. Or, just google EXIF reader. There are quite a few.

It should be displayed in EXIF data

KUSO EXIF viewer is a good program to use

right click on an image and click properties in windows explorer (assuming you use windows) and you should see some information on the shoot as long as the exit data is imbedded.

Flickr does it for you too....

 

[arwesa]

firefox exif plugin is good too, right click any image in the web browser and if the info is there you can read it.

Flickr just seems to tell the camera and not the lens

Lightroom will let you show shots taken with a specific lens or body if you have it.

Canon Exposure Mode Aperture-priority AE
Lens Type Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 MkII
Short Focal 50 mm

That's in the Exif for your photo of Kayla

The lens info is quite far down in the exif on Flickr.

The full lens detail may require software with knowledge of the lenses to translate from the EXIF data into known lenses. Though many will show you the focal length shot, possibly with conversion to 35mm equivalent if it's not full frame.

The camera manufacturer will typically have software that will show the exact lens, and I'd assume some of the big packages will do it. E.g. I use Nikon's Capture NX software and this tells me the lens easily.

Flickr does show it if you click on the link for the camera, you get further details, though it's buried away. It depends what the camera has put in the EXIF data though.

I use this fairly regularly.

Any software that came with the camera will be able to tell you that (such as Canons Zoombrowser EX / DPP).

On my iPhone so I cant see what camera you have but I should imaging all the other manufacturers software does the same.

As a few already mentioned, Flickr stores EXIF data which can be viewed when you click on the name of the
camera on the right of the photograph & Adobe Bridge {often comes with Photoshop} displays EXIF data.

This^ I only use DPP out of all the Canon software but that tells me the info you need. it's software you already have, requires no uploading of images or downloading of extra software, quick free and easy.

I have a photo on Flickr where the Flickr exif correctly reports the focal length as 500mm and the short focal length of the lens as 150mm (it's a Sigma 150-500mm) but reports the lens type as a Canon EF 135mm f/2L! Further down the page it reports the model as '150-500mm'. (Flickr Exif page link)
