# converter.thumbnailUseExifPreview Property HTML5/Flash Uploader JavaScript

Supported technologies:
 
Gets or sets a value specifying whether the uploader should try using EXIF previews when possible.

## Syntax
 
```
$au.imageUploaderFlash({
    converters : [
        {
            //...other params...
            thumbnailUseExifPreview: true,
            //...other params...
        }
    ]
})
```

```
$au.imageUploaderFlash('uploaderID').converters().set(index).thumbnailUseExifPreview(value);
value = $au.imageUploaderFlash('uploaderID').converters().get(index).thumbnailUseExifPreview();
```
 
### Property Value
 
Type: **Boolean**
 If `true`, the uploader will search for the EXIF preview in a file. If this preview is larger than the image size specified in the converter, it will resize this preview instead of the original image. If you prefer always loading the original image, set the property to `false`. 
Default value is **true**.
