A data review program- EXIF Viewer, which someone posted on the LUG? shows a LOT of information - more than you mention for the M8- when I reviewed the data from an image take with my R9 DMR. I just checked a random image taken with an old R 60 mm F2.8 Macro, and it tells me that the image was taken at an F 5.6 aperture at 1/30th and a whole host of other details. Great feature for inquiring minds. Best, Stasys On Apr 23, 2008, at 7:33 AM, Geoff Hopkinson wrote: > Stasys, thanks for looking. The M8 does not report the aperture used to > EXIF.
