Many times you encounter important images of leaked products online, while it has not been officially announced by the company.

However, in most cases these image files are created using Photoshop or image editing software. JPEGsnoop is a free application that can help you analyze in detail and detect whether the image has been edited or original.

In addition, JPEGsnoop can help you detect various settings that are used in digital cameras when taking photos (EXIF metadata, IPTC). JPEGsnoop reports what digital cameras or software may have been used to create that image. This is extremely useful in determining whether or not an image has been modified / falsified in any way.

Below is the result of the test conducted on 2 image files - one of which uses the Paint image editing tool to edit and another is the original from the camera.
