Pillow _getexif for python 3 - Larz60+ - Oct-01-2016
Hello,
When pillow 2.1.0 was released, it included the following:
Quote:(1.1.4b1 released)
+ Added experimental EXIF support for JPEG files. To extract EXIF
information from a JPEG file, open the file as usual, and call the
"_getexif" method. If successful, this method returns a dictionary
mapping EXIF TIFF tags to values. If the file does not contain EXIF
data, the "_getexif" method returns None.
caveat: (I did underline experimental)
Has anyone had success with this? I have been developing on MS windows 7 pro (unfortunately for me) as of late, and always get 'None' as a reply.
here's a sample:
from PIL import Image
class SizeOfImage:
def __init__(self, filename=None):
self.filename = filename
def get_exif(self):
ret = {}
i = Image.open(self.filename)
info = i._getexif()
print('info: {}'.format(info))
return ret
if __name__ == '__main__':
szimg = SizeOfImage(filename='images/generalmotors.jpg')
szimg.get_exif()The image opens fine, but the result I get from above code is always None. I've tried it with several images with the same results.Is there another way to do this? All I really want are the image dimensions

Just use the size attribute of the image returned by Image.open
image.sizeThe size is given as a 2-tuple (width, height).

Hello Yoriz,
Thanks, That's too easy.
Never looking for what's in front of me all along - ( ut iocularis ).
