Exif is supported by almost all digital camera manufacturers.

The metadata tags defined in the Exif standard cover a broad spectrum:
* Camera settings:  This includes static information such as the camera model and make, and information that varies with each image such as orientation (rotation), [[aperture]], [[shutter speed]], [[focal length]], [[metering mode]], and [[ISO speed]] information
* Image metrics: Pixel dimensions, resolution, colorspace, and filesize
* Date and time information, digital cameras will record the current (local) date and time set on the device and save this in the metadata
* Location information
* A [[thumbnail]] for previewing the picture on the camera's LCD screen, in file managers, or in photo manipulation software
* Descriptions
* Copyright information
