Well, actually, there is. But you would need an app for that. The app is called Metapho and is available for free download from the iTunes App Store.

This information is not of any great use to social-media-snappers but photography enthusiasts love to analyze this information to figure out what goes into making a great photograph – and it definitely is very useful if you are the type that likes to take photographs in manual mode, changing different settings, instead of just pointing and shooting in auto mode....

As Brad Molen of Engadget puts it, RE looks like a tiny periscope or a PVC pipe or an Asthma inhaler. The first thing one would assume is that HTC RE is competing with GoPro, but according to HTC, it’s not. Interestingly, it’s competing with your smartphone cameras. And HTC has a heck of a job convincing people to pay $199 for a gadget like this. RE comes with a 16-MegaPixel camera with a very wide-angle (146 degree) f2....

It stuttered and stammered its way through our Gmail accounts, trying to find a way into our Googled lives. Some of it worked and still exists, such as Google Hangouts (still good for video calling) and Google Photos, a convenient way to store photos on the cloud. But most of it didn’t.
