Flash Exif Data Display Problem(back to index)Has anyone experienced problems with the Flash exif data being falsely displayed on folderblog? I use the Minolta Dynax 5D and Canon Powershot A75 cameras and I hardly ever use the flash on them but most of the time flash on folderblog is displayed as 'On' even though the picture's exif data has it as 'not fired' or 'off' respectively for the two cameras.
Does anyone know how to display the flash data accurately?

(I think) its a Bug in fb_exif.php
Line 65 -> change "ON" and "OFF"

Thanks for the reply but sorry for the stupid question, Tobias, change 'ON' and 'OFF' with what? Or do you mean simply switch one with the other?

Thanks, Tobias, it is not perfect but works in most of the cases. (There are still some photos where the flash data is still shown to be 'on' even though it was not used).

I think it's the following line in the fb_exif.php extension:
"<#fbflash#>" => isset($data["Flash"]) ? (bindec($data["Flash"]) ? "On" : "Off") : "",
There are various possible values for the flash. 'Not fired' = 16 so maybe change that line to the following:
"<#fbflash#>" => isset($data["Flash"]) ? (intval($data["Flash"])==16 ? "Off" : "On") : "",
