Peter Bremer (ID: 000000b8cbaa2f73) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/01/2021 This is the best Exif viewer extension. Clean interface, works good. There is two things I would love to see added: a mini-map (either in the image overlay or in the settings dialog) and a list of embedded keywords.

Steffen Braun (ID: 000000f8af831ec6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/03/2019 Sehr schönes und schnelles Exif-Tool. Es werden (wie bei den anderen Exif-Viewern auch) aber nicht alle Exifs angezeigt obwohl diese definitv vorhanden sind. Vielleicht ein Problem von Chrome? Oder die verwendete Exif-Version ist eine inkompatible?
