hi ethan 🙂
in the template, use the following code to get the EXIF data:
$image_data = wp_get_attachment_metadata( $attachment->ID );
$image_meta = $image_data['image_meta'];
and then you will be able access the following properties:
$image_meta['aperture'];
$image_meta['credit'];
$image_meta['camera'];
$image_meta['caption'];
$image_meta['created_timestamp'];
$image_meta['copyright'];
$image_meta['focal_length'];
$image_meta['iso'];
$image_meta['shutter_speed'];
$image_meta['title'];
`
Thanks so much! That worked perfectly!!!!! =) =) =) =) =)
Aesqe, as I’m understanding your suggestion, this will only allow us to insert EXIF meta into a full gallery insertion, correct? In other words, when inserting a single photo, there currently is no way to get EXIF data inserted into the caption or description?
If that is correct, I guess this is more a complaint with WordPress’ media library and not offering more flexibility with EXIF at the time of importation.

@electrolund: take a look here: http://regex.info/exif.cgi?dummy=on&imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Ftodayilearned.co.uk%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2011%2F09%2Fcat-makes-friends-with-a-baby-deer-in-Odessa-zoo-in-Ukraine.jpg
EXIF data from this particular image is copied to attachment title and description correctly when uploaded via WordPress.
The function responsible for parsing EXIF data is wp_read_image_metadata.
See the “Return Values” section to see which EXIF values translate to which attachment fields.
