I've just started storing my camera files in RAW mode but don't get any EXIF data showing in the InfoTips. It works fine for jpgs from the same camera (Nikon D40).
The images display OK just no EXIF data 
I've tried storing the raw files in both NEF and DNG format and have added the extensions to the Image File type group.
What am I missing ?
Thanks
Dave
Opus (or the RAW plugin, depending on how you look at it) doesn't support extracting EXIF data from RAW camera images yet.
You may still be able to get the data via a 3rd party shell extension which adds the information to Explorer. Opus will pick up the same information, provided {infotip} is in the filetype's infotip definition. ({infotip} gets the infotip data that Explorer would show for the file.)
Thanks for the reply.

I've installed the MS RAW Viewer and now in a standard explorer I can see the exif data. However I'm a little lost in how I add the {infotip} into Opus. I've used the File Type - System File Type - NEF and added it there but still doesn't work.
I guess I'm missing something here 
Any help apprechiated
Many thanks

It sounds like you're doing the right thing. If you add some other things to the NEF infotip do they show up?
Set it to something like this:
TEST NEF SIZE: {sizeauto}
TEST NEF TYPE: {type}
(Leave out the {infotip} for now, to keep things simple.)
If you still don't get anything appearing for NEF files, or different information appears, then it might be coming from one of the file type groups or the generic file types ("All Files" etc.). I think specific file types should overwride both of those but I'm not completely sure (off the top of my head).
OK Some progress 
I tried the test infotip and it worked. However {infotip} still doesn't.
I then tried -
Camera: {sh:cameramodel}
Shooting Time: {sh:dateimagetaken}
Aperture: {sh:aperture}
Focal Length: {sh:focallength}
Shutter Speed: {sh:shutter}
White Balance: {sh:whitebalance}
Autho: {sh:author}
Colour Space: {sh:colorspace}
Image Type: {sh:digitalimagetype}
Dimentions: {sh:imagedimensions}
ISO: {sh:isospeed}
Lens: {sh:lenstype}
And all work
Could this indicate a slight problem with {infotip} interpretation ?
At least this gets me most of the info - Are there any other {sh:....} that I could use ?
Thanks for the help

Solved 
After a little investigation I found that {infotip} worked OK with DNG type but still not on the NEF type. The problem turned out to be the MS RAW viewer which was handling the NEF but, as it doesn't support DNG, wasn't handling DNG's (this was using IDImager Raw Shell Entender instead).
Uninstalling the MS RAW viewer and setting the IDImager to also handle NEF's allowed {infotip} to work with both. 
This doesn't actually answer the question as to why the {sh:...} worked with MS RAW Viewer and {infotip} didn't but that's perhaps somthing that can be addressed in the future if need be.

{infotip} should get whatever infotip is displayed in Explorer. If the infotips are different between Opus and Explorer then there may be a problem but otherwise everything's working as it should.
the {sh:...} items will ask a particular shell extension directly for a particular detail of a file. It's possible that an extension provides, say, a column that can be used in Details view, in both Explorer and Opus, but that that information isn't in the Explorer infotip.
Explorer allows multiple programs to add columns to the same view but I suspect (I don't know for sure and haven't investigated further) that Explorer only allows one program to generate the infotip for a given file, so the infotip depends on the handler that gets to the file first.
In Opus you can mix and match information from different handlers by manually specifying the things that each of them add but {infotip} on its own will always just get you whatever appears in Explorer.
