Almost excellent

This does a good job of enabling you to change the metadata on your photos, which is just what I need since my camera does not have GPS capabilities. I have only two problems, both more annoying than show stoppers, but the do rate losing a star.

The first problem, and the most major issue, is that you can’t move from field to field by tabbing. You have to click into a field to move to it. This is very annoying when changing related fields, like the GPS data and the “General” data fields.

The second problem is with the GPS data. There is a “Show on map” which is great for fine tuning locations, but presents two of its’ own problems: First, if you move the pin it only moves ONE of the selected photos, not all of them. If I select multiple photos then, obviously, I want to move all of them, not just one. The second problem I have with the GPS map is that after moving the pin the map zooms back out to its’ default. It should hold at the zoom level I have selected, not require me to zoom back in each time. If I’m working with several shots in a particular area, the zoom should remain as-is.

Other that these problems, this is a great app that doesn’t require you to change the photo format. I shoot exclusively in raw (Canon CR2) format, and I don’t want to lose that just because I am changing the metadata. Other programs I have tried requring saving bad into jpg, png, or tiff format.
