What it does
Most digital photos carry EXIF data: the camera make and model, aperture, shutter speed, ISO and other settings recorded when the shot was taken. Photographers and their audiences often want to see those details, but typing them out by hand for every image is slow. This addon pulls the information straight from your image files and shows it alongside your photos, so visitors can see how each picture was made without you writing captions for every setting.
The addon works inside the Envira Gallery interface, where you turn EXIF display on and choose how it appears in gallery layouts and in the lightbox, with no coding needed. It also adds custom taxonomies for camera manufacturers, so you can organize and filter images by the gear used. Paired with Envira's Dynamic Addon, it lets you build galleries from queries based on EXIF data. It suits portfolio sites, photo blogs and any Envira-powered gallery where the technical story behind a shot matters.
Best for
- Photographers presenting portfolios with camera settings
- Photo bloggers who discuss gear and technique
- Sites already using Envira Gallery for image galleries

Questions about Envira Gallery EXIF Addon
Do I need Envira Gallery to use this addon?
Yes. It is an addon for the Envira Gallery plugin and works inside Envira's gallery and lightbox settings. It adds EXIF display to galleries you build with Envira rather than working as a standalone gallery tool.
Which camera details can it show?
It displays EXIF metadata stored in your image files, including camera make and model, aperture, shutter speed and ISO, along with other recorded settings. The information is read from the photos themselves, so you do not have to type it in.
Can I sort or filter photos by the camera used?
Yes. The addon supports custom taxonomies for camera manufacturers, so you can organize images by brand. Combined with Envira's Dynamic Addon, you can also create galleries built from queries based on EXIF data.
Will it work with photos that have non-English EXIF text?
It handles EXIF text in character sets that cannot be converted directly, such as Japanese JIS, without producing PHP warnings, so images from cameras set to other languages are handled cleanly.
