I use tapatalk as it’s ad free, I like its layout / organization also.
Occasionally I do use a browser , on my MacBook Pro when posting R5 photos
Well the point is that a browser does contain that info, so typing it out is not only redundant but also a waste of time for the poster. And if a photographer has stripped the exif, they must have done so for good reason (or possibly don't know how to export or use an odd photo editor).
I actually don't find a lot of merit in the base exif info that is requested other than perhaps camera body and focal length. Two people could stand at the same spot with the same gear and make very different exposures and neither would be wrong. They are just different creatively. Some might disagree with that, but with modern cameras and modern editing programs you can make nearly all camera brands look extremely similar in post.
After shooting 35mm film from the early 1980’s on my Pentax SLR till now and various digital bodies / lens .. I’ve settled on Aperture priority for depth of field, shutter priority for sports / speed related, and manual for well, when needed.
So yea; relative same exposure can be done multitude of ways, and with todays expanded ISO it’s opened up lots of creative choices.
So, simply, EXIF is not as helpful as say 7-8 years ago…
Anyways kinda off topic this thread, except possibly for the February POD thread no need that in the rules section.
>>whos the decider / admin for this sub forum?
feeding time
I usually post exif data; but maybe it isn’t of interest.
not sure the final arbiter of the rules but here is a discussion thread for it.
lol - hope not as I have been doing the same. I pick a photo to post from a collection of favorites taken over the years with no regard to shoot date.
The shadow of mountain is visible atop the clouds. Taken from the Subashiri Trail, Mount Fuji, Japan. October, 2018.
Hospital garden, last month...

I still post EXIF because it could be of interest to others, as it is to me to see what camera / lens etc., and it saves them looking for metadata

Just 1 more of these snow crystals, these were captured Wednesday January 3rd 2024 towards the end our 5k snow shoeing trek my family did on Lone Mountain Ranch trails, I posted that tree yesterday from it.
Honestly I’m failing as a photographer here, as the pictures don’t capture the uniqueness and scope of them, how they sparkled and shinned in the late afternoon sunlight.

I love this! Great comp, and the high contrast really works on the negative version
Mt Rainier national park
Fuji x-pro 2 w/ 16mm 1.4
edit: Anyone know what the file size limit is for photos? I can’t seem to upload full res versions
I saw this thread but still couldn't work out the answer in the end. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think it's 3mb, and general consensus is to cut them down to 2000 pixels on the long side?
Anyone?
