Is there a python module to extract EXIF data? If not, is there some other option, like a light version of exiftool? I want to include this in a program, so I don't want to use quiver or something like that.

Thanks,
L.

Take a look at mmpython and pyexiv2, both should do the job, but I have not used them (yet) under maemo.

On the tablet maybe this could be easier, as it's pure-python :

I used this. It is implemented and working.

Thanks!!

Actually, looking at the code, it seems that it retrieves "Flash compensation" from Olympus cameras, for example. However, I was unable to retrieve that tag.

Do you have an idea on how to do that?

Thanks,

Sorry, none. I only ever used it in the most basic of ways.

Have you tried the related SF forum ?

It's really sparse but at least the author seems to answer questions...
