Describe the bug
When reading exif data, the system throws an error:
actions:
- echo: "datetime: {exif.image.datetime}"
output:
not useful error:
IMG_4756.HEIC
- (exif) ERROR! hdlr
Solution found in random thread: ianare/exif-py#160
pip install "exifread<3" solved this for me.
I'm on macOS (Apple silicon).
This allowed exif to start working properly.
organize, version 2.4.0
osx : 12.6.1, M1 Mac apple silicon

Stumbled across this while searching for the error message, I doubt it's the M1s fault but something apple does with the heic files, since I encountered this error on fedora on x86_64. The proposed solution also solved the issue for me

I can reproduce this for HEIC images. I'm submitting an update to fix this.
