ExifStream writes lens metadata directly into your RAW files, so Flickr, Photos, and anywhere else you share finally shows the glass you actually used.
Manual lenses (Rokinon, Samyang, Helios, Zeiss, Voigtländer, vintage glass) don't write metadata to your RAW files. ExifStream fixes that in seconds, without re-encoding a single pixel.
Four steps from SD card to shared photo, with your lens name intact.
Plug in your SD card. ExifStream detects it and imports your shots into a named session folder.
Pick the keepers, reject the rest. Move through a session in minutes, not hours.
Select your lens from a preset list or enter it manually. ExifStream writes it directly into the RAW file.
Send your keepers to Apple Photos or copy them to your own folder structure for further editing in Lightroom, Capture One, or any app you prefer. Lens metadata travels with every file.
Brands like Rokinon, Samyang, Helios, Zeiss, Voigtländer, Laowa, 7Artisans, and TTArtisan presets built in. Save your own custom lenses too.
Your files, your folders. ExifStream is a tool, not a database. No proprietary library format, no subscription.
Write copyright, creator, caption, and keywords into your RAW files in one step. Works alongside lens tagging.
Auto-detects your card and imports into a named session folder. No Finder juggling required.
Import directly into your Apple Photo Library and album of choice, including your default library or any libraries you have created locally.
ExifTool writes metadata directly into the RAW file. No sidecars, no separate files to manage, nothing to lose. Your RAW data is untouched.
Convert your RAW files on the way out. Choose your format, set the quality, and cap the size at 1024, 2048, or 4096px. Perfect for sharing web-ready copies without touching your originals.
A companion web app for your phone. Select your lens from your saved profiles when you mount it, and ExiLog logs every switch with a precise timestamp, ready to sync back to ExifStream.
ExifStream reads your ExiLog session and assigns lenses to photos automatically by timestamp. Shoot, swap, shoot. ExifStream figures out the rest.
