Modified EXIF plugin- ISO & shutter(back to index)
Noticed that the EXIF plugin didn't support ISO speeds, and that a bug with the shutter speed support. The shutter speed support wouldn't work properly with shutter times over 1 second (showed 1/0.03333 instead of 30 seconds).

Having never programmed PHP, and only having some highschool Java programming under my belt (from 5 years ago), I tried my hand at editing the EXIF plugin for FB3. Only edited about 5 lines of code, but it took me almost 2 hours! Now i know why I'm not a programmer!

Take a look at my website for proof! :) I've got two photos on there, to demonstrate the EXIF working with shutter speeds over and under 1 second, & the ISO support i added in.

A .txt version of my modified EXIF plugin is available at http://www.rhymingorange.com/extensions/fb_exif.txt

Donald, feel free to incoporate this code into the next Beta, providing I haven't made any dealbreaking coding errors!

james, thanks. This is exactly why I included the extension functionality -- glad to see someone taking advantage (and cleaning up my mess!). I've linked your source from the wiki.
