    You can use ElasticExif without having to install and manage ExifTool on your server - great for use with PaaS like Heroku.

    Edit image EXIF and IPTC metadata on the Mac. The easiest and the simplest way. Edit multiple files at once.

    The tool is useful when you don't want to expose camera to your customers. When your RAW processor doesn't open your file because it doesn't recognise valid.
