MakerNotes
Camera MakerNotes Metadata on Mac
MakerNotes are vendor-specific EXIF extensions. They hold details generic viewers often hide.
Apps are available exclusively on the Mac App Store.
Reading MakerNotes on the Mac helps validate lens identity, custom modes, and other camera-private tags before conversion.
That matters when migrating proprietary RAW into DNG or when auditing equipment usage across shoots.
