DxO PhotoLab does not offer all existing IPTC fields, but provides a selection of those fields most used by photographers (contact, copyright, caption, location). IPTC: The International Press Telecommunications Council consortium defines metadata fields, also stored in images, attachment files, or software databases, in which the photographer can enter information in the form of text, such as an image caption, copyright and contact information, subject codes and categories, geographic information, etc.EXIF standardizes the information related to shooting photos by recording within the images well-defined data tags, such as the shutter speed, the width of the image in pixels, the serial number of the camera, and hundreds of other data points. EXIF: the EXchangeable Image File format protocol is defined by the JEIDA (Japan Electronic Industry Development Association), which includes not only camera manufacturers, but also image processing application publishers (including those outside of Japan).These are official protocols adopted by the international image and publishing industry: In photo software in general, and in DxO PhotoLab in particular, you will find two types of metadata: EXIF and IPTC. The saving of metadata is automatic and executed in real time. They are also saved in the DxO PhotoLab database. Metadata is information or data that describes or is associated with other information or data, such as a keyword that describes a photo, shutter speed, geographic coordinates, etc.įor RAW files, this metadata is recorded in annex files, also called sidecars for RGB files metadata is stored in fields provided for this purpose within the file itself.
