EXIF data focal length
|
Hi,
i wonder whether the focal length that is presented in the EXIF data of the photos already calculated the crop factor or should i multiply it in the crop factor in the case of a crop camera.
thanks in advance...

The EXIF data merely reports whatever the camera embedded -- Flickr doesn't change or add EXIF data. So, you might search for a group about your camera and ask there how it reports things.

That focal lenght is the *real* focal length but you can find the other (with crop factor applied) in the "35mm. equivalent" Exif field

It reads
Focal Length In 35mm Film: 72
for a Focal Length: 48 mm for example.
The latter is on top of the exif page, while the other is nearer to the bottom.

If I re-size a picture before uploading, some of the EXIF data is stripped. "Focal Length In 35mm Film:" is one of them.
[using jUploadr for resize-and-upload].
