I have a need to change the copyright information on a bunch of cr2 raw files from my camera. I have my camera set to auto add copyright information. Just my name and all rights reserved. I am not sure what I need to do to edit the all rights reserved part as I am planning to creative commons these images and I forgot to adjust the camera settings.
Thanks in advance
To write a new copyright, use something like this
exiftool -Copyright="New Notice" -CopyrightNotice="New Notice" -Rights="New Notice" <FileOrDir>
That will set the three major copyright tags to what you want. If you want to batch recurse into subdirectories, use the -r (recurse) option (https://exiftool.org/exiftool_pod.html#r-.--recurse). This command will make backup files. Use the Overwrite_Original option (https://exiftool.org/exiftool_pod.html#overwrite_original) to suppress that. Add the -P (preserve) option (https://exiftool.org/exiftool_pod.html#P--preserve) to keep the current file system modify date.
Thanks a bunch worked like a charm.
