[Qgis-user] plugin doesn't find exiftool executable

[Alexander Bruy]

It does. Now I see, you just do it wrong and without
reading documentation :-).

"ExifTool Config" field used to specify custom config
file, not executable. Path to executable file should be
configured in plugin settings.

Please check documentation at
https://github.com/NaturalGIS/geotag_and_import_photos/wiki

Hope this helps
