Each of my jpeg files are over 1 meg, and read_exif_data seems to read the
whole file and it's very slow. So I wrote a function to read only the
beginning of each file:
function read_exif_data_quick($path) {
$tmpfile = "/tmp/read_exif_data_quick.tmp_file";
$in = fopen($path, "r");
$out = fopen($tmpfile,"w");
fwrite( $out, fread( $in, 15000 ) );
fclose($in);
fclose($out);
return read_exif_data($tmpfile);
}
And so far it works for all of my jpegs (taken with my digital camera).

I started drooling when I saw that php could read the exif information
automatically for me. Then I found out that read_exif_data is NOT
compiled into the standard win32 build (think about including it please!).
To get around this I found the following program that runs from the
command line and works really well.
it's actually a set of utilities that will even allow you to put exif data
into images.
It's freeware, but the license says no commercial use without written
permission.

By the way, it works under linux or win32

Perl Image::Info module is capable of reading EXIF tags (places them into
an associative array). You can write a simple script to use the module and
it will extract all or only required tags out of a jpeg file.
