Find media files by details (metadata)
You can search by file details or metadata available in your images. Searching by metadata is useful when you want to
search using multiple criteria at once. For example, if you want to find all photos taken on 12/31/05 that include the
“Mom” tag, you can search for both capture date and keyword tags in the Find By Details (Metadata) dialog box.
Searchable metadata includes criteria such as filename, file type, tags, albums, notes, author, and capture date, as well
as camera model, shutter speed, and F-stop, among others.
Note: Searching for camera raw files will also find TIFF files with a .tif extension.
