    Was gonna post this in off-topic, but my camera is not supported. Can people test this please to see if it works?

    Thanks

    It extracts the camera serial number from the EXIF tags. It can only work
    for cameras that put this information in the EXIF.

    It does seem to work with my camera. It returns "0 search results" even
    though there are dozens of photos on the web that were taken with this
    camera. It's a bit like tineye; it could work in theory but it usually fails
    in practice.

    I just tried it - and it seems that some guy in the UK has my camera, and is posting on Flickr :eek: - this is dispite that fact my Nikon is sitting here beside me...

    Very strange - methinks it doesn't actually work...
