I currently have around 4000 images from a time-lapse sequence and as part of my research I want to analyse each image individually. However, I need the appropriate metadata for each image.

Is there a way I can generate an Excel file with all the appropriate metadata for each image, such as time image taken, date, camera settings, image number etc?


I am open to any suggestions besides individually going through each one! Many thanks.
 
Probably best using command line and exiftool to extract the information you want. Then format to a .csv file. Will be tough doing the first one, but then moving to 4000 is easy peasy....
 
Thank you everyone for your suggestions.

I have also spoken to some other people and they provided me with a very easy method to extract basic data. I haven't progressed onto extracting capture data such as shutter speed etc. but to extract image name, date, time and file size this method works very easily. I hope this is of some use to you as well as for me.

open up CMD:
type: cd "insert directory"
dir > list.txt

within Excel, open up list.txt, select space delimited. done.

You'll need to go to one of the other methods for anything more than that unfortunately...
