Hello,

When I look at the Canon tags page of Exiftool, I can see that the CameraTemperature tag is written twice, :

http://www.exiftool.org/TagNames/Canon.html

The first in the Canon ShootingInfo tags :
12 CameraTemperature int16s (newer EOS models only)

Then for each Canon DSLR, say the Canon EOS 1000D, in the Canon CameraInfo1000D Tags :
24 CameraTemperature int8u

It seems that these two tags are different because the first one is a signed 16 bits integer, and the second an unsigned 8 bits integer.


When I try to use Exiftool with the syntax :

> exiftool -Cameratemperature file.cr2

I only get one value.


How can I access each of these two tags ?

Hi Fred,

If a tag exists twice in an image you must use the -a option to see both.  This is because duplicate tags are suppressed by default.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).
