I am trying to include specific Flash information in Adobe Bridge panel i.e. mainly wanting to show 1) Flash ETTL or Manual 2) Flash Manual power level 3) Flash ETTL FEC value.  Can anyone please help with this query ? I have seen people mention plug-ins but not sure if that's what I need and which one.  I am using Adobe Bridge CC 2018 Thanks Mark

    I am not sure these values are available in the EXIF

    EXIF Flash values are:-

    0x0= No Flash
    0x1= Fired
    0x5= Fired, Return not detected
    0x7= Fired, Return detected
    0x8= On, Did not fire
    0x9= On, Fired
    0xd= On, Return not detected
    0xf= On, Return detected
    0x10= Off, Did not fire
    0x14= Off, Did not fire, Return not detected
    0x18= Auto, Did not fire
    0x19= Auto, Fired
    0x1d= Auto, Fired, Return not detected
    0x1f= Auto, Fired, Return detected
    0x20= No flash function
    0x30= Off, No flash function
    0x41= Fired, Red-eye reduction
    0x45= Fired, Red-eye reduction, Return not detected
    0x47= Fired, Red-eye reduction, Return detected
    0x49= On, Red-eye reduction
    0x4d= On, Red-eye reduction, Return not detected
    0x4f= On, Red-eye reduction, Return detected
    0x50= Off, Red-eye reduction
    0x58= Auto, Did not fire, Red-eye reduction
    0x59= Auto, Fired, Red-eye reduction
    0x5d= Auto, Fired, Red-eye reduction, Return not detected
    0x5f

    = Auto, Fired, Red-eye reduction, Return detected

    Thanks SuperMerlin for reply.  I know that e.g. the FEC value is captured in camera as it shows in the info on the LCD monitor so wondered how to get that info showing in Bridge ? Thanks for trying to help Mark

    Can you post an XMP sidecar for one of your RAW images that has this data? If its in the sidecar then you can get to it to display. Otherwise you might need to use exiftool to copy those specific tags into some other field where it is accessible.
