How do I retrieve the properties of a photo taken on a digital camera using .NET?

Preferably in VB.Net, but C# is fine, how can I access the extra properties added to a file by my digital camera, like Date Picture Taken, Shutter Speed or Camera Model?

How can I get camera information from a photo?

Just right-click on the photo in question and select “Properties”. Click on the “Details” tab and scroll down—you'll see all kinds of information about the camera used, and the settings the photo was taken with.

How do I view EXIF metadata?

On a Windows PC using File Explorer right-click on the file you want to see the data for. You will see a window pop up with various options. Click on Properties and then on Details. This will bring up the EXIF data for that photo.

I maintain a library that offers comprehensive support for extracting image metadata from a variety of file formats.
