Exif

Exif is a standardized data format for representing auxiliary metadata for multimedia files. The Acclectic WordPress Lightbox can display Exif metadata that is available in the original source image of the file being displayed. In addition to Exif, the lightbox actually parses for additional metadata formats, including IPTC, XMP, ICC, and MPF. The available metadata formats depend on file type. Metadata functionality is provided by the third-party ExifReader library.

If there are additional metadata tags that you’d like to see, please file a feature request.
