Download ExifTool 12.58

Phil Harvey has released version 12.58 of ExifTool. ExifTool is a free and cross-platform program that allows the metadata of a large number of files can be managed and edited. It works from the command line, but there are third party solutions available that allow it to be used with a graphical user interface as well. New versions are released regularly, but most releases are made available under the beta banner. This update is also referred to as a development version; the latest stable release is version 12.50. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Changes in version 12.58:

• Added Additional ImageDataMD5 tag to calculate MD5 of image data only
• Added support for reading DJI APP4 and APP7 JPEG segments
• Added a new SonyModelID value
• Decode a few new Nikon tags (thanks Warren Hatch)
• Downgraded “Windows file times” to a minor warning when Win32::API or Win32API::File is not installed while reading metadata
• Patched possible runtime warning when API IgnoreTags option is used to ignore FileType
• Fixed problem extracting NetName from Windows LNK files
• Fixed issue where the %C filename format code would increment the count on an output filename collision, but it is supposed to count the input files
