I'm new to both this forum and photography as a whole, and i was wondering how to i find out what the "post exposure information" (ISO, shutter speed etc.) is on a photo i've taken.

thanks

If you're using a PC, right click on the image on your computer and select properties. On the dialog box that pops up, select the "Details" tab. It will show you every bit of information your camera saved to the image. I'm sure the process is similar for a Mac, but I don't use one so I couldn't say for sure.

Most photo editors will have the ability to tell you the exif information.

Or you can use a stand alone exif reader like Opanda iExif .
