attaching cations into photos, how?

i was thinking of using loading captions into the file info via photoshop, but it seems to save as a separate doc is there other ways of putting a cation into the images exif data?

Redline - do you mean something static like a copyright - or a caption that changes for each image. For static you could just do this in camera using the comments field - for variable details why not use one of the many EXIF editors around (eg Opanda EXIF) or use something like iMatch which let's you edit the EXIF AND is a very good image organiser.

yeah i usually use user comment in camera, but i just figured it out.
you can save a caption in the file info screen by press ok, close then save the image. rather than using save in the info screen which saves the captions data sep.

thanks guys
