If you look through the entries on my site (www.d70s.co.uk/blog), many of the entries state that the flash was fired when in fact in most instances it was not!! Any ideas what may cause this? Could it be anything to do with the way i save things in photoshop affecting the exif data or is it a pp issue?

Many thanks!

what kind of camera do you have? the biggest pain in the ass is that all the different camera companies like to write this data their own way, and often change it between models too...it's so hard to get down perfect.

Cheers guys! It is indeed a D70s, looks like it's a Nikon thing! Everything else seems to be ok, just the flash from time to time! Oh well, not the end of the world!

PP uses Exifer for exif info, email writer of Exifer script. visit their site maybe there is a newer version of EXIFER available.

i havent looked at exifers code in forever, but i swear there was a 1 and 0 setting for the flash ebing fired in something we used to use, if that was just swapped around then it would read correctly. or something...err...im going to class now

perhaps - but i don't think this is the case for EVERY photo and if it is then it is only for the nikon
