Does anyone know how to remove the 'OwnerName' field from JPG EXIF info without resorting to using a hex editor? I have my name saved into my Canon S2 IS. Sure I can set it back to a blank name in the camera but I have a ton of JPG's where the 'OwnerName' field is already there. All the EXIF editors I have tried don't let me edit that field. EXIFTools might do it but it's a complex command line tool to learn. I just want to kill that one field and retain all the other EXIF info.Image very related (Cropped from a 12x zoom at the beach). Oh yeah I hex edited this one ;)EXIF data available.

Don't want the van to be able to trace it back to you huh?
TactYou should learn some.
Tact? On my 4chan?
>>70675>>70672I don't have many of those kinds of shots. But since it's 4chan I thought I would add some loli humour. But for everyday shots I'd like to upload here and other places, I want to remove my name from existing JPG's. Preferably using a batch mode. Otherwise I will have to hex edit manually which is tedious.
>>70675murk loar.
irfanview has batch processing mode, and in the jpeg save options you can select weather you want to remove exif tags.not exactly what was asked for. i hope it helps
>>I thought I would add some loli humour.no.ontopic: looks like you'll have to resort to command-line EXIF tool + script, or use a script for the HEX editing
>>70665Here, with this tool, you can post to your loli fetish delight without having your identity exposed.http://www.kiwiczech.net/index.php?menu=353&sub=4BTW, there is a GUI for EXIFTools.
> EXIFTools might do it but it's a complex command line tool to learn.No it isn't.. Unless you're retard or something.$ exiftool -OwnerName= dir/
>>70691No it isn't.. Unless you're primarily used to Windows and GUIs or something.Fixed, such people tend to have a fear for any command line interface, but no reason to call them retarded because not everyone is an expert with Bash shell
I understand some command line stuff coming originally from a DOS OS but the nix stuff I can't get to grips with. The above command means little to me that way it is there and with Windows long directory names/paths and their crap command prompt it does not work very easily in that fashion.
OP here. I figured it out. No really I did. It works just using 'exiftool -OwnerName=AnyNameYouLike \foldername' I'm just trying to figure out how to do it with long folder names and not creating a backup of the old files.
