Example

This property holds the collection of Exif data records that were found in the image file. If you want to read them you might use the following code:

[C#]

XImageLoadOptions loadOptions = new XImageLoadOptions();
loadOptions.ReadExif = true;
XImage image = XImage.FromFile(Server.MapPath("rez/exif.jpg"), loadOptions);
if (image.Exif != null) {
  string txt = "Make: " + image.Exif["make"].Value + "\r\n";
  txt += "Model: " + image.Exif["model"].Value + "\r\n";
  foreach (ExifRecord ip in image.Exif) {
    txt += "Name: " + ip.Name + "\r\n";
    txt += "Value: " + ip.Value + "\r\n";
  }
  Response.Write(txt);
}


[Visual Basic]

Dim loadOptions As New XImageLoadOptions()
loadOptions.ReadExif = True
Dim image As XImage = XImage.FromFile(Server.MapPath("rez/exif.jpg"), loadOptions)
If image.Exif IsNot Nothing Then
  Dim txt As String = "Make: " & image.Exif("make").Value & vbCr & vbLf
  txt += "Model: " & image.Exif("model").Value & vbCr & vbLf
  For Each ip As ExifRecord In image.Exif
    txt += "Name: " & ip.Name & vbCr & vbLf
    txt += "Value: " & ip.Value & vbCr & vbLf
  Next
  Response.Write(txt)
End If


This might produce the following output:
