Which software to know what is the SN of the FLASH used.

Hello.

I wonder witch software can I use to show the serial number of the flash used to take the picture ?
I am using a canon flash (600 ex-rt ) with canon cameras body (1DX, 6D).

I am using 4 similar flashes. One of them have a problem (it has been sent to repair now). I would like to track back when the problem started by checking previous pictures where I was using this specific flash.

I am usually using Photo Mechanic, but it s not possible to do that.
I have found on the web a software for windows (breeze browser),but I am on Mac !

Is there any way to see that ?
Thanks !

Alex

Canon's DPP will show the most EXIF data.

Hi!

Thank you for posting to the Canon Forums!

Flash information included in the EXIF data is limited to exposure and not model specific.

We hope this clarifies!
