Photos OK to edit
I guess I found out who sold me the camera LOL. It is showing his name on my EXIF Data. How do I put my name on there?
 
I think you have to do it via the software that came with the camera, if memory serves me correctly. I read it in the manual.
 
Take a look at the manual, the menu is where you will find the specific location for entering the camera user info.
 
Same for Nikon? I'd be I interested in this as well.
 
Ship it to me...I'll send you back an old Nikon D70 in trade, with whatever artist name you want loaded into that field...problem solved. I'll keep the defective Canon, and you can have the Nikon. What name would you like placed into that field?
 
I used the EOS utility to update the camera owner name info on my 40D. So your 5D maybe the same.
 
I had the software loaded for my T1i already but it doesnt seem to communicate with my 5D.
 
it can be done with the eos utility as i did that with my 20D.
 
Ok, I found a guy who's EXIF data looks like this...

I cannot create a category like he has in his exif. Is there a way to do that?
