Try this - I’ve removed Graphic Converter from the mix and come up with this AppleScript. You will need a command line tool called ExifTool. Download it from here:
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/You will get a Mac installer - run that and let it use the default install settings.
Copy & paste the following AppleScript into your AppleScript editor:
Save it as an Application. You will now have a droplet icon. Drag and drop the photos you want to change the camera make & model onto it. You will be asked for this information. After this, the script will run through the images and add/change the information you entered to the
EXIF data in the image.
If you want, you can edit the script to add other
EXIF data, such as lens type etc.. You can obviously change the default answers for camera make & model to best suit your needs.
Notes:• ExifTool creates backups for the original files -
EXIF re-writing can go wrong, so this seems a sensible precaution to take. The original images will have _original appended to the file name. If you are reconciling your library with Aperture after running this script, then the _original files won’t be added. If you are doing this before importing to Aperture, it may help to move those _original elsewhere first.
• This is supplied “as is” - you use at your own risk. This was tested on Mac OSX 10.6.7.
• ExifTool works on most image file types - so you should be OK with TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PSD. As this is for images taken on film, I don’t think that RAW will be an issue here.
Hope this is useful.
