What is EXIF?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format). These files store important data about photographs. Almost all digital cameras create these data files each time you snap a new picture. An EXIF file holds all the information about the image itself — such as the exposure level, where you took the photo and any settings you used. This makes it easier to filter photos on your storage device by particular image characteristics. Also it’s useful for photographers to make catalog your images easier.
