HI,
Is it possible to append the exif data from a directory of images into one file, so that this can be imported into an excel spread sheet or some other application to do some review and analysis on.
I have found this in the help documentation;
exiftool -T -createdate -aperture -shutterspeed -iso dir > out.txt
List specified meta information in tab-delimited column form for
all images in "dir" to an output text file named "out.txt".
When I tried the following;
1. exiftool -T -createdate -aperture -shutterspeed -iso dir > out.txt
Windows throws an error on ">"
2. exiftool -T -createdate -aperture -shutterspeed -iso c:\out.txt
Only problem is windows throws an error on the c:\

Hi Ben,
There are a number of ways to do this. Please let me know if you have any questions after reading FAQ number 12 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q12).
But you seem to be having some basic command-line problems. Your commands should work if you run "cmd.exe" and type them in the window that appears.

Hello Phil,
Thank You for the clarification, I was attempting to put the string directly into the shortcut and not the command line.
This is a brilliant utility, very useful.
Thank You
Ben
Yes, piping is a feature of the shell, and can't be done from within a shortcut. But you can avoid using the command line (if you want drag-and-drop functionality for example) by putting the command in a .BAT file.
