Exif data for VRayPhysicalCamera

[rdg]

Hello,

my wish is:

a tool/script/rendereffect/checkbox/whatever to write Exif data for a physical camera into a jpeg or tif file.

I tried it today by exporting a xml file and trying to get php the data into the file but it failed. Mainly because I don't know much about this exif stuff.
(the example writing a description into the file worked ...)

sometimes it helps to do the dishes.
Returning with the intention to finish this task and me with c#, the first goolgle for c# help returned a free software and with a commercial license:

Exiv2 - Exif and IPTC metadata library and tools [1]

It is a commandline utility that can read a command file to update the exif data.

Now everything works as expected
I can post the maxScript later.

Maybe you have suggestions what exif data should be stored.
I also try to make this a render effect.

the proof of concept version of my script.

You can add exif data from a camera to a jpg.
This is enough for my task right now.

good way to answer you own post.
Maybe you could post this script in the off topic section
