Searchable EXIF info

[tavenger5]

I think it would be a great feature to add searching capability to selectable EXIF data. Perhaps a checkbox could be next to the EXIF field in the admin panel to make it searchable.

For example, a user could click on Model and get all pictures taken with a specific camera.

I realize this would involve indexing of this data and that it is not exactly standardized.

Well alot of the reason things like that are not searchable is that exif info is an array field. Can get quite cumbersome or intensive.

Is a nice idea just some way would need to be found to do it effectively.

Yeh, I knew breaking down that data wouldn't be easy. It would probably be easier to use replacement variables on the image display pages.

This is a good idea, allso might be nice to be able to choose the data pulled from the Exif.

I would mostly just want these:

Date and Time
Exposure Time
FNumber
ISO
Camera make
