Filter by EXIF tags

[jkm]

It would be fantastic if XnViewMP could filter images in the browser by EXIF values.

For example:
Show images with Aperture=5.6
Show images with ISO>=1600
Show images with ShutterSpeed>=1/30

Being able to combine any of these would also be very helpful.

As an addition to the above, or even instead of to simplify user interface changes, instead of a full GUI with drop down menus and pick lists for the values, there could be a simple text box entry that could contain things like this:

{EXIF:F-Number}=5.6
{EXIF:ISO Value}>=1600
{EXIF:F-Number}=5.6&{EXIF:ISO Value}>=1600

Each line above is a separate example of a filter. & for AND and | for OR.

This functionality would really be a wonder addition! Pretty please?

[Advanced] Search (Ctrl+Shift+F) exists for exactly this purpose

Thank you, but the fields it can search are very limited, and it can't search makernotes at all.
Searching "all fields" to overcome the limited exif selection returns incorrect/ambiguous results when two different fields (which cannot be individually selected) contain the target value.

The current advanced search doesn't meet my needs.

instead of a full GUI with drop down menus and pick lists for the values, there could be a simple text box entry that could contain things like this:

sure, which symbols are you going to use for 'contains', 'starts with' conditions?

advanced search GUI exists in the most apps for a reason

the only limitation I see - global OR/AND
but I don't recall any app that uses separate matching option at condition level

if you need any new EXIF tag - make a separate topic with such specific request

but I don't recall any app that uses separate matching option at condition level

FastPhotoTagger (freeware .jar app) can work on any tag managed by ExifTool... even in it's DataBase, and queries can be built with "And" and "OR" for each tag
But it's not as convenient as Xnview

I second filtering by more EXIF tag options. I am missing the option of sorting pictures by Camera Model or Lens.
ACDSee has both of these options
