I was wondering if it would be possible to develop a small add-on myself (with a developer help) to display a simplified EXIF ​​data when opening a photo (if it has collected EXIF ​​data, of course). Photographers like to see the 5 or 6 essential data points (i.e., Exposure Time, F-number, IsoSpeedRating, etc.) and nothing more.

One other reason is a privacy concern while displaying the whole Exif ( gps data when available)

I suppose it's easy to do since the data is available, but I don't have any idea how to retrieve the EXIF ​​data and the best way to implement it (a Joomla plugin? a specific CB plugin? something simpler and easier to maintain, like an override?).

What could be the best method and php code to catch the Exif  to match with the CB requirements  ? Your advice is very precious to get the starting point

Thank you!
