    Help reading exif info

    Hi!
    I´m working in a program witch need to read Exif data from my Sony
    Alpha A100 raw (arw extension) pictures. I found a table with keys for
    read it, but i can´t read. I tried something, but i can´t. I found
    this "table":

    Full table is there: http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exif...ames/EXIF.html

    *************** *
    Tag ID Tag Name Writable Group Values / Notes
    0x0001 InteropIndex string! InteropIFD 'R03' = R03 -
    DCF option
    file (Adobe RGB)

    'R98' = R98 - DCF basic file (sRGB)

    'THM' = THM - DCF thumbnail file
    0x0002 InteropVersion undef! InteropIFD
    0x000b ProcessingSoftw are string IFD0 (used by ACD
    Systems
    Digital Imaging)
    0x00fe SubfileType int32u! IFD0 0 = Full-
    resolution
    Image

    1 = Reduced-resolution image

    2 = Single page of multi-page image

    3 = Single page of multi-page reduced-resolution

    4 = Transparency mask

    5 = Transparency mask of reduced-resolution

    6 = Transparency mask of multi-page image

    7 = Transparency mask of reduced-resolution
    *************** ****

    The most important is to read Date data from Exif info. If someone can
    write an example how to read this data... thank you!

    I´ll tried with this code but i´ve go an error "out of memory" in this
    instruction...y ep...raw files are over 10Mb....
    "Image.FromFile (DialogoAbrir.F ileName)"

    I hope someone can help me. thanx

    Try perhaps :
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif (or tools from the site you found).
    They should mention tools that would allow to read those info (either
    to fit your need or just to find out what your own code should find).

    For now you are loading this file as an image. I doubt this is
    supported as it takes most usual formats such as jpg, bmp etc... It's
    likely you'll have :
    - to read the image file, basically each "tag" - a numerical value -
    indicates what is the information that follows, it allows to change
    more easily the file format than if all informations were at fixed
    locations
    - it's likely you'll have also to convert the image data itself to a
    format suitable for showing the image

    Depneding on what is your interest (to have the job done or to do it
    by yourself) you may want to check third party tools (your hardware is
    not able to export this in a suitable format ?)
