What is the best way to copy metadata from RAW image to corresponding JPEG files in case of we have a lot of files?

Phil Harvey

Here is an example from the Copying Examples section of the ExifTool application documentation:

exiftool -tagsfromfile %d%f.CR2 -r -ext JPG dir
            Recursively rewrite all "JPG" images in "dir" with information
            copied from the corresponding "CR2" images in the same
            directories.

...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 ($).
