EXIF Viewer Questions & Answers
Answers to common questions about reading camera settings and image metadata.
What is an online EXIF viewer?
An online EXIF viewer is a tool that reads the Exchangeable Image File Format metadata embedded inside digital photos. It reveals camera model, lens type, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, capture timestamp, and GPS coordinates without modifying the image file.
Are my photos uploaded to your server when viewing EXIF data?
No. freexifdata.com uses a 100% client-side architecture. All metadata parsing happens entirely within your web browser using HTML5 FileReader and client-side binary parsers. Your photos are never uploaded to any server or cloud storage.
Which image formats are supported by this EXIF viewer?
Our viewer supports JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, HEIC/HEIF, and popular camera RAW formats including Canon (CR2/CR3), Nikon (NEF), Sony (ARW), Fujifilm (RAF), and Adobe Digital Negative (DNG).
Can I view camera lens and serial number data?
Yes. If your camera or phone records lens focal length, 35mm equivalent focal length, camera body serial number, or lens model, our viewer extracts and displays these details in the Camera and Hardware section.
How do I check if my photo contains GPS location coordinates?
When you upload an image, freexifdata automatically scans for GPS latitude and longitude tags. For your privacy, coordinates remain concealed until you explicitly click "View on Map", which displays coordinates and opens Google Maps or OpenStreetMap in a new tab.
