I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but here goes. Is there a program available that can interogate the EXIF data from a collection of photos and produce some sort of graph which displays the focal lengths used in all the shots?

But be warned that the data is mostly useless when used on your whole picture archive. The problem is that for some focal lengths you take a lot more shots of the same scene, namely birds and airshows on the long end and difficult exposures like sunsets at the short end. My imagine composition sucks. I need a heavier lens.

Oct 15, 2012 06:55 | #5 Jeffery Friedl's DataPlot plugin for Lightroom can do that. Select a bunch of images and run the plugin and it'll produce a bar chart - If you don't like the layout then you can always save the raw data into a .csv file and import it into your favourite graphing application, like Excel... Oh. As well as focal length you can do the same with Aperture, ISO, Shutter Speed and Exposure Value. Frank Hollis - Retired mass spectroscopist

Thanks for that Frank. That looks just what I'm after. Thanks also to everyone else who replied. | EOS 6D| EOS 3 |EF 24-105mm f/4L|EF 70-200mm f/4L IS |EF 40mm f/2.8 STM | EF 50 f/1.8 II | Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art | Pentax MX |Pentax ME Super|Pentax K1000|Kiev 4A|Yashica Electra 35 GTN|Yashica 24|Ricoh GR III
