Exchangeable Image File Format, or EXIF, is an image file specification that stores information about each image. This metadata, as it's commonly known, includes details about the camera's make and model, the artist's name and copyright, shooting information such as aperture, ISO, exposure, and much more. Although the camera generates much of this information automatically when the photo is taken, sometimes the information contained in the EXIF needs to be added to or edited. Exif Pilot is a simple program that allows users to do just that.

Exif Pilot's interface is plain, with a traditional three-pane layout. On the left is a tree-style hierarchical display of folders on the user's computers. When a folder containing images is selected, the file names are displayed in the central pane. On the right there's a small image preview area, as well as a Properties display that lists file, EXIF, and IPTC information. This information is fully editable, making it easy to correct errors (perhaps your camera's date and time were set incorrectly, for example), add information not captured by the camera, or create data for newly digitized images. Exif Pilot also lets users import and export EXIF data in Excel, XML, and CSV formats. The program's built-in Help file is brief but adequate. Overall, Exif Pilot didn't knock our socks off in terms of looks or features, but it's a useful and intuitive tool for working with metadata.

Exif Pilot is free to try, but the trial version is save-disabled. The program installs a desktop icon without asking and leaves a folder behind upon removal. We recommend this program to all users.

Does the Job and then some!
CalifBeachBumOctober 12, 2016
Pros
Allows the editing of most every EXIF field even those that most other editors will not such as 'Date Taken' date AND time fields.
Cons
Does not allow for 'batch' processing of multiple fields based upon an existing field.
Summary
EXIF Pilot is one of the few EXIF editors that allows user editing of every field.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Oct 12, 2016<p/>A Batch Processing 'plug-in' is available for a whopping $79.95 US
Intuitive, easy to use.

Pros
Simple interface, browsing/image selection with one or two clicks. On to the next image or another folder of images with another click. Layout of exif or other data is clear and perfectly organized.
Cons
I didn't try any editing, if it does that. I only wanted an exif viewer, and this is perfect for that. I suspect editing will be simple also.
Summary
won't function
DynVSeptember 18, 2013
Pros
Program interface seem nice.
Cons
It won't actually show any files when I click on any folder with images in them. I looked at the menu trying to figure something out ; but if there's another step needed to show the exif information of pictures, or at least list the files, it's not intuitive and it should really be.
Summary
Pointing to a filer or folder with pictures than showing some information about them, hopefully EXIF info, should be the basis of the program and it fails.
