It's not a stupid question - it's confusion caused by loose terminology. Technically, EXIF refers to the whole of the image file format that we usually just call a JPEG file, because the actual image stream is typically stored using the JPEG File Interchange Format. (For real geeks: EXIF is, itself, an extension of the TIFF format). When applications such as Photoshop talk about stripping EXIF data from a file they're really talking about stripping particular sorts of EXIF metadata (typically information on camera model, the date on which the image was captured, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, location, etc., etc.); the resulting file still conforms to the EXIF format, and may well still include some other EXIF metatata. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
