Picture Information Extractor 4.21

The Original EXIF Toolkit.
PIE is a picture browser and viewer with perfectly integrated photo metadata and file renaming features. It extracts EXIF information from JPG and RAW files and makes it available in a convenient and welcoming interface.
Part of the EXIF header is standardized and contains information such as date and time the picture was taken, shutter speed and aperture or wether the flash was used. A lot of information however, is put into the Makernote block, which is proprietary and normally forces you to use the software supplied with the camera. PIE, however, contains an extensive Makernote support. With one single tool, you can review pictures with all the metadata from almost any camera.

* PIE allows to edit metadata, add or delete tags, change EXIF date/time, lossless rotate and update embedded thumbnails, without destroying the Makernote data, like other programs including Windows Vista do!
* PIE has the ability to rename picture files keyed to the date and time as well as other photo information, handled by a filename mask which can be customized easily.
* Complete metadata headers can be saved and restored, as well as removed from the pictures.
* PIE is a very comfortable picture file manager. Move, copy, delete and rename picture files.
* PIE has a fast integrated picture viewer with zooming and panning and also a slide show feature.
* PIE is simply the best way to transfer your images from digital camera memory cards to your computer. It moves or copies photos and videos, renames them as defined in the filename mask and rotates photos taken in portrait mode automatically.

All this makes the Picture Information Extractor an essential tool for amateur photographers and professionals alike.
