Default Pulling Camera Information

Is there a way to pull camera information: Camera Type, Lens, F Stop, Shutterspeed, ISO, filename, etc. from a Folder of images into a csv (or any text delimited) file? Currently I am doing it 1 at a time and actually opening up the information and then typing the information into a notepad file. Which after taking 600 images doing each one is painstakingly long to do. I would really like to be able to create a contact sheet of the images with the data either next to or below.

TYIA for any help.

What kind of computer system are you working on? There is probably some way to do this work as a batch job rather than relying on manual effort but the details will depend on your operating system.

I use mainly Windows but have access to Mac and Linux on slower machines. Images are all on an external drive so I can get them to nay of the machines. My searches since my post have not yielded anything outside of one at a time. So I been doing it manually as I look at each shot and those that I like and plan to keep I extract the data. Those I don't plan to use I don't extract but keep it in raw format so if in the future i need it I have access to it.
