INJECTING METADATA • SORT TOOL

Sort by Camera

Inspect and organise media using camera make/model information already present in metadata.

WHAT SORT TOOL DOES

Sort by Camera, step by step.

Read camera information

Read camera make/model from existing EXIF.

Respect structure

Organise without unnecessarily destroying the existing folder hierarchy.

Expose missing data

Keep files with missing camera information identifiable for review.

WHEN TO USE IT

Sort by Camera is an optional organisation/inspection tool.

Sort by Camera imageAdd or replace the module screenshot manually from the Admin panel.
Sort by Camera ends here. Other modules open on separate pages.

Sorting keeps media identity and reusable cache. Once all moves finish successfully, one shared bulk housekeeping pass removes genuinely empty folders and their empty parents throughout the working library, while required roots and folders containing other files remain. All pipeline stages continue to find media inside the sorted layout. The same automatic folder cleanup applies to Modules 90–94, Reshuffle and Clean Suffix, whether started from Mac or iPad.
