Title: EXIF statistics with exiftools and Powershell
Post by: cron-dk on March 07, 2017, 12:06:41 PM
Hi,

For anybody interested, I made a small blog-posting with some examples of how to use exiftools in powershell to collect statistics from your photo library.
It can be found here: http://www.cron.dk/playing-with-exif/ (http://www.cron.dk/playing-with-exif/)

Best regards,

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the post.

Note that I wouldn't recommend using -csv for a very large number of files because the results are cached in memory for all files before outputting the result, which can run you out of memory if you have enough files.  Instead, I recommend -json if possible.
