Not sure if anyone has noticed this yet. If you edit a photo in the photos app in iOS 8, it removes the metadata such as exposure, shutter speed, ISO, etc., even the location of where the photo was taken. Once edited, opening it up in a app like Camera+ and tapping on the info will display no metadata. Also using image capture on my mac to transfer the photo and look at the info on there shows no metadata. However, if you go back into the photos app and revert to the original image, and do the same things I just listed, the metadata magically comes back. This is very odd. The idea of being able have more editing features built into the app is great. But if its going to remove all the metadata then I can't imagine continuing to use it for now. I figure that when iCloud Photo Library is finally working maybe the metadata will be displayed there but it still sucks for people that might not want to use Photos for everything and use the metadata for organization. Anyway, just seeing if anyone else is seeing this and if there may be a solution or something I'm missing.
