Metadata for Camera flash strength etc?

Hi
Anyone else feel Adobe Lightroom could be improved by importing more detailed metadata from the camera, for example:
Identifying the point of focus used (as many camera backs do)
Flash strength, direction, distance to focus point etc
For example I am trying to develop a sense of the capabilities of a new Flash unit for a Canon 7D, and find it a pain to have to manually record all the settings I am altering and then match them back against the test shots. Why not let the software do the work?!
Thoughts?

Yes.
Meanwhile, this might help - http://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies/metadata-viewer

Displayed metadata for camera raw photos

My work flow has me making adjustments to the manufactures NEF file and then saving as a DNG at a later time. This seems about the fastest way to do it and allows me to do my DNG conversions when I am sleeping, eating dinner etc as they do take a bit of time.
It would be very nice if I could have a option of displaying in the metadata if a photo is "NEF, CRW" or "DNG" rather than what I get now which is "Camera Raw" for all file types.

The data for NEF and CRW are proprietary to the camera vendor. Therefore, even if Bridge could decode them, which it very often can't, they are meaningless.
BTW: DBG setting is exactly the same as Camera Raw

Make Flash Plug-In for Firefox Remember Privacy Settings for Camera and Mic Access on Local File

My company is using Flash Player to develop some kiosk-style applications to run on a standalone computer (no network connection). This computer will contain web pages containing Flash content. They will be opened from the local HD with Firefox with the Adobe Flash plug-in (v11.7.700.224). One of the applications accesses the microphone hooked up to the computer. When this application is started, it always asks for permission for "local" to access the microphone and camera. In previous versions of our system, we could click "Remember" if we did it once and that would make it so it wouldn't ask for permissions again (in this case, the Remember option isn't available, and the site settings don't even offer the Privace tab). However, in the previous case, we were running IE with a previous ActiveX Flash version (unfortunately, this approach is no longer available as we have had to switch to Windows 8 and that changes the game with IE and Flash entirely).
At this point, we have tried to use the Global Settings for "Camera and Microphone Settings by Site..." to enter "Local" as an always allowed site. This does not seem to have any effect. We also tried entering the root directory of the applications in "Trusted Location Settings", but that also seemed to have no effect.
I'm not sure what has fundamentally changed here. I think there might be some differences in the Plug-In version (compared to ActiveX), but I'm not sure what they might be or how to do the same thing as before.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Chris,
We learned that the Privacy tab (in Settings) can be found under the Flash plug-in for Firefox, but only if Firefox is running under an administrator.
Unfortunately, we haven't had much luck with the mms.cfg file. The following was used in the mms.cfg file (placed in both the %WINDIR%\SysWow64\Macromed\Flash and %WINDIR%\System32\Macromed\Flash” directories):
AVHardwareDisable = 0
AVHardwareEnabledDomain = local
AVHardwareEnabledDomain = 127.0.0.1
AVHardwareEnabledDomain = localhost
AutoUpdateDisable = 1
The AVHardwareEnabledDomain settings seem to be getting ignored regardless of whether the user is a standard user or an administrator. I also checked to make sure it wasn't just a local problem by going to a website that uses a microphone (http://www.testden.com/accent-reduction/systemcheck.htm). Adding the requested domain to the list (AVHardwareEnabledDomain = train.act360.com) still didn't bypass the allow/deny dialog box.
We know that the mms.cfg file is being read because setting "AVHardwareDisable = 1" will result in no prompt and that section being greyed out in Global Settings. I saw a post that suggested this setting was required to even make the AVHardwareEnabledDomain work, but it seems to block the local entirely and still brings up the dialog query on the internet site.
Thanks,
Torrey

IPhone 4s glitches, is cracked, and camera flash doesn't work. What is the cost to exchange for a new one?

Front screen of my iPhone 4s is cracked, it freezes/lags, camera flash doesn't work, and every time you press a bit harder on the front screen red and grey vertical lines appear. I have had it for more than a year now, so how much will it cost for me to replace it?

These prices are for the U.S.

If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.

iPhone 5          $229
iPhone 4S          $199
iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
iPhone 3G, Original iPhone          $149
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax.
When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorization for the maximum service fee listed above. This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications.

Why did my camera flash and flashlight quit working on iPod 5 I did a complete restore and still nothing only had for a week can't believe it would be broken already

Why did my camera flash and flashlight quit working on iPod 5 I did a complete restore just to see and still nothing have only had for a week so I can't believe it would be broken already any ideas

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

When you have location service on for camera when you post to facebook, instagram etc. can people find out were I took it?

Hey jerzeyzfynest,
Unfortuantely, no -- Geek Squad Protection plans require that repairs be sought before a product is considered for replacement. This means your current laptop would only qualify for an exchange if one or more of the following conditions are met:
A factory-authorized technician has determined that repairs cannot be completed
A factory-authorized technician has determined that replacement parts cannot be obtained
The unit has accrued two previous qualifying repairs a factory-authorized technician has identified a third qualifying hardware failure
A detailed overview of this policy may be found in your plan documentation, as well as in the sample brochure available on the following site:
http://bbyurl.us/TandC
If your current laptop hasn't been performing up to par, then I'd encourage you to speak with a technician at your local store when you have the chance to do so. Diagnostic services are included in your service plan coverage, so we'd be glad to help find out what's going on.

How can I read out metadata for captions from a Canon photo

I have to tried to find an answer via Adobe and Google. Still not able to figure out on how to read out XMP metadata for captions out of my photos. Checking the XMP data in InDesign shows info on Camera Make, Exposure etc. But if I use metadata fields from "Caption Setup" like "Camera" the caption shows <No data from link>. Fields where the XMP field name matches (e.g. "Lens") are ok. I need following fields for the caption: Camera Make, Exposure (aperture and speed) and ISO.

Lets keep it simple then.
If I take my utf file generated and open and view it in notepad I can see the accented characters. But if I open it in Wordpad , the accented characetrs are corrupted.
If I then save the file specifiying type Ascii, then the characters are written out correctly.
What I want to do is to be able to write out the file in ascii format without having to open it in utf-mode and then having to save it in ascii.
Ie I want the file to be opened in ascii format
All the characters to be written in Ascii format
But the source is still a unicode database.
I have gone through using convert and characters get lost. In fact, at this stage, I'm not sure its possible to do What I need to do.
Remember I am using an 8 bit character set which is why I have values above 127.
So basically if you take the word 'Annulé'
if I view it in wordpad it displays as
AnnulÃ©
But if I view it in notepad it displays as
'Annulé' which is because notepad detects that the file has a utf-8 character in it.
When I save it as type ascii I can then open it correctly in wordpad.
So I basically want to open this file in Wordpad and have it display Annulé rather than the garbled characters,
without having to go through the process of opening and saving the file as type ansi.

Metadata for Nikon D5200.

I can't view my metadata for my Nikon DD5200 in PSE12. I have the 8.0 plugin installed though. File info in PSE10 allowed me to view everything (shutter speed, ISO, focal length, etc.), but is blank in PSE12. Why?

Camera Flash ON- Won't turn off

I took kids out to the beach yesterday and had my phone in my holster and on my belt and totally forgot. It got a little wet and I took it off and put it aside. It stayed ON and I even received a call from it. When I hung up the phone after the call, the Camera Flash turned on and I am unable to turn it off. It is draining the battery.
The phone turns on completely fine, I can check my email, send and receive emails, phone calls and can text but the camera flash light remains ON. I have tried everything and have even turned the flash OFF but it is not working.
Has anyone else seen anything similar? I was reading up on posts and someone had a similar issue with BB Pearl and reinstalled the OS and it seemed to fix the issue.
Please advise.

Dont think the phone has had moisture exposure- strip on battery is still white... thanks
The strip on the battery means nothing.
There is a square white 1/4" sticker inside the device, normally if you remove the battery you will see it. That is the actual device Liquid Damage Indicator... and STILL, high humidity (not full moisture or liquid) can cause the issues you're describing. Keeping the device powered on, loading a new OS, removing and inserting the battery, can possibly only further damage the device.
Moisture can come from laying a bathroom counter during a hot steamy bath or shower, in a gym locker, in a pair pants or shirt pocket while your sweaty during a run or workout, etc.
IF there is a remote possibility of anything like that, remove the battery, and place the device and the battery in a bag of dry white rice for 3-4 days.

Is the camera flash supposed to go off with the alarm on the iPhone 4S when it is locked?

I have just recently noticed that the camera flash goes off with the alarm in a three flash pattern when the phone is locked, but not when it isn't. I can't find a way to turn it off in the settings and was curious if this is supposed to happen or if it's a bug?
Thanks in advance for your help.

See this veeeeeeeeeery long thread.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3404857
It's an issue with hundreds of phones. Some claim it's software related, some hardware, some say it's a mixture of both.
Some people have had temporary success with quitting the Phone.app / restoring as a new phone / restoring from an iCloud backup / disabling Siri / toggling speakerphone on & off...
Unfortunately all of the above only been temporary, with the problem recurring again after a few calls, or a few days etc.
So far the only solution that seems permanent has been to replace the phone. But even so, it's the luck of the draw to recieve a functional phone, and not another faulty one.
I'm completely annoyed as there is no Apple Store near me...... and Apple haven't even acknowledged the issue, despite the above thread being 34 pages long, as of writing.

Is there a way to use an off camera flash or remote flashes on a Rebel T5? (This is not a T5I)

I have a Rebel T5 I just bought a few months ago. I like it as it is a great entry into DSLR. I will be looking at upgrading in a few months. But in the meantime, I just bought a speedlight kit (not Canon) and it came with 2 speedlights and the remote trigger and 2 remote receivers. Is there a way to enable the camera to use off camera flash? i was able to put one of the flashes on as an extrenal flash but I have not been able to figure out how to enable off camera flash.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thank you Skirball. It did come with a trigger. I must not have had the correct settings. When I first got the set, I put the trigger on the camera and hooked the lights to the receivers and it did not work for me. I thought I needed a special setting. But I must have had the receivers set to camera instead of flash. Once I put it on today, it worked and triggered both flash units. Incase anyone else has this issue, the kit I bought from Amazon is the Altura 2 flash kit that came with 2 speedlghts, the trigger and 2 receivers. I paid $169 for it. But when I hooked them up today and had the receivers set to Flash, they both were triggered when I pressed the shutter button.
Thank you again.
