Is it possible to insert Copyright Info in Exif in camera?

[Martin Nillesen]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm new to this forum and maybe my question has been asked already but I couldn't find it.

 

Is it possible to set copyrightinfo or ownership in the exif when setting the camera (Alpha 7mk2)? Coming from Canon I'm new to all the possibilities and options of the A7mk2 settingsmenu. I also own a Olympus OM-D E10 and this camera had an option to set my name in the Exif.

 

Thanks for any info.

If you pop open the "properties" window

on an A7M2 image, in a section called

"origins" [under the "details" tab] there's

an entry called "copyright".

 

I don't use it, so I've never edited it, but

clearly it is intended for that. My Canon

5D2 was purchased as used, so I hadda

remove someone else's name under the

"author" heading, but it was clear enuf

from the menus how to do that.

Unfortunately not - a long-requested feature which seems trivial for Sony to implement...

You'll need to enter your Copyright info into the settings of whatever software you use to import your photos instead.

@LeButler Thanks for your reply, I guess we have to wait for a firmware update. I'll have to use Lightroom to add ownership of the photo's the "old fashoned way" .

Update: this page claims the feature is now in A7Rii.

The new camera is debuting a lot of other software improvements too; there's a fair chance many of them will come to the current models via future firmware updates.

With firmware v 2.0, in the Sony a7rII, there is a feature to add copyright info to the EXIF file. It is on p.5 of the "suitcase" tab in the menu. However, there are no instructions as to how to insert the name of the copyright holder. No keyboard opens, and the owner's manual does not address this feature. Does anyone know how to enter the name of the Photographer or Copyright Holder?
