Text file with photo annotation

[cecbur]

I would like an option to add a .txt file with each photo. It would contain a text that describes who is in the photo and where it was taken. I would like to create the .txt file using voice recognition.

(Lacking that I would like to be able to add a sound file with the same information.)

Is there such functionality in any camera?

Hi @cecbur,

you can edit the so called "EXIF-data" on your PC/tablet by using the right app. You can add a "creators comment" to each photo.

I am not aware of any camera which can do this right after taking the photo.

FYI: My current camera can store a sound file with each photo. Until now I have used that function for annotations.

Hi @cecbur,

that is the first first time I hear of such function - what camera are you currently using if I may ask?

Hi @IamNic 

I use a Panasonic DMC-TC7. Read about "AUDIO REC." in the manual:

Most of my cameras have had this function. It is one thing I really look for when I buy a camera. It is such a convinient way to annotate the photos.

I found the Smile app and now I'm using that to annotate my photos

but I would much rather do it in the camera and get an ordinary .txt file that I can import anywhere.

(Is there somewhere to put and/or vote for such suggestions?)

as far as I am concerned, this is the only way to do this.

It is a tool from the US community, so you would need to create a seperate account.
