This article describes how to use Python to read Image EXIF library, such as PythonImagingLibrary and EXIF. for more information, see Python Imaging Library:
The code is as follows:
From PIL import Image
From PIL. ExifTags import TAGS
Def get_exif_data (fname ):
"Get embedded EXIF data from image file ."""
Ret = {}
Try:
Img = Image. open (fname)
If hasattr (img, '_ getexif '):
Exifinfo = img. _ getexif ()
If exifinfo! = None:
For tag, value in exifinfo. items ():
Decoded = TAGS. get (tag, tag)
Ret [decoded] = value
Handle T IOError:
Print 'ioerror' + fname
Return ret
If _ name _ = '_ main __':
FileName = 'C:/Users/Leyond/Desktop/IMG_20121122_153514.jpg'
Exif = get_exif_data (fileName)
Print exif
The returned list is as follows:
The code is as follows:

ExifInteroperabilityOffset
FlashPixVersion

59932 is a large string of hexadecimal characters. In addition to PIL, there are many class libraries available for use:
Media Metadata for Python
EXIF. py
Python Exif Parser
A Blogger's Exif Parser
Pyexiv2
Next, let's take a look at EXIF. PY. the usage is very simple: exif. py IMG_20121122_153514.jpg
The code is as follows:
EXIF ColorSpace (Short): sRGB

EXIF DateTimeDigitized (ASCII): 15:35:14
EXIF DateTimeOriginal (ASCII): 15:35:14
EXIF DigitalZoomRatio (Ratio): 1
ExifImageLength (Long): 2560
EXIF ExifImageWidth (Long): 1920
EXIF ExifVersion (Undefined): 0220
EXIF ExposureBiasValue (Signed Ratio): 0
EXIF ExposureMode (Short): Auto Exposure
EXIF ExposureProgram (Short): Portrait Mode
EXIF ExposureTime (Ratio): 1/256

As for Python Exif Parser, it seems that it has not been updated for a long time, and the usage is similar:
The code is as follows:
Import exif
Photo_path = "somePath \ to \ a \ photo.jpg"
Data = exif. parse (photo_path)
You can study other class libraries on your own.
