Hi Phil.
I have a dir with nef raw's and I need to extract the PreviewImage to a subdir /jpgs with the orientation tag to be able see them with the right orientation.
I have been triying in many ways but with not success.
The first part works ok
exiftool -fast -b -PreviewImage -w jpgs/%f.jpg DIR/*.nef
but after -execute, copying -Orientation to the previously extracted jpgs/*.jpg is where I am lost.
-execute -overwrite_original -tagsfromfile %d%f.nef -Orientation -w jpgs/%f.jpg DIR/*.nef
Please, can you show me the right way?
My best regards and a lot of thanks for this nice exiftool.

The command I gave in
this thread
should work if you add a leading "." to ".nef.jpg" as mentioned,

Hi Phil.
I have got it.
From /home/user/DIRnef to /home/user/DIRnef/DIRjpg
exiftool -b -previewimage -w DIRjpg/%f.jpg -ext nef DIRnef
-execute -overwrite_original -tagsfromfile @ -orientation -srcfile DIRjpg/%f.jpg -ext nef DIRnef
Now I can extract the PreviewImage with orientation from a nef's dir to a jpg subdir /jpg, very nice, indeed.
I check that Nikon D300 nef's contains a previewimage with 570x375 pixels but Canon 50D only has a full size -JpgFromRaw which is also extracted with -b -previewimage, it is ok.
Thanks a lot.
My best regards.

I'm glad you got it working.
Yes, there was a bit of inconsistency between my use
of the PreviewImage vs. the JpgFromRaw tag name, and
I agree that I should have named it JpgFromRaw
for the CR2 images. But this is not worth changing now
because I'm sure that people who wrote scripts for their
CR2 images wouldn't be happy if I broke them.
