Hi Reimar,
the JUHAPL library offers exif_reader.pro which is, however, a bit outdated.
For instance I use
spawn,'jpegexiforient '+files[i],ori
to retrieve the information on the image orientation for proper display and
if keyword_set(exif) then spawn,'metacam '+path+files[i],exiftext
for other exposure details.
It is a bit curious that RSI does not offer routines for dealing with EXIF
headers, especially since it is owned by KODAK (they make digital cameras too,
I heard).
regards,
Bringfried
