Where to find lens used in Lightroom?

2 years 5 months ago #732380 by Mason Latka
I'm selling some old camera gear and trying to post photos that were taken with specific gear.  Does Lightroom show which lens was used in a photo?  If so, where may I find this?  

Thanks again!

Yes and no. It depends. The camera embeds the information. If you shot a raw file then it is for sure there maybe. Older cameras and lenses don't always report. If you edited the raw file and turned it into a .jpg it depends on the setting of your editor. It may leave the data there or it might strip it off.

In my computer internet browser Firefox. I installed an extension (XLFR) that allows me to see the exif data of any image that has  the data on the internet. Lightroom would show this information as well.
In the first example it shows both camera and lens. Second example older camera and lens D810 and original 70-200 2.8 it does not show the lens but the camera. Third example show no data at all, the editor stripped it out.

I forgot this....
Finding EXIF Data
Viewing EXIF data is simple. If you're looking at an image in
Photoshop, simply navigate to “File > File Info…” and you'll be able
to see and edit all of the EXIF data there. If you're in Lightroom, then
you'll see this in the Library under the Metadata panel.
