IPTCMetadataPreset
IPTC Metadata Preset is a Sony macOS app for creating IPTC metadata files and exporting them to memory cards for compatible cameras.
What is IPTCMetadataPreset?
IPTC Metadata Preset is a photo metadata utility for compatible Sony cameras on macOS. It helps photographers and editorial workflows prepare IPTC metadata in XMP format, then export that data to a memory card so it can be registered on a camera and applied to images when they are captured. The app is aimed at users who need consistent captions, copyright details, creator information, event data, location fields, contact details, and licensing information embedded into still-image workflows. It can open existing XMP files, save new preset files, and manage multiple export candidates for cameras that support more than one preset. This makes it useful for news, sports, event, and archive-oriented photography where accurate metadata matters before images leave the camera.

Safety overview
Status: Safe
This is a legitimate Sony utility used to prepare photo metadata for compatible cameras. Its normal use involves access to files you open or save and removable storage such as memory cards connected to your Mac. Removing it does not affect macOS, but you may lose an easy way to prepare and export camera-ready IPTC presets unless you use another workflow.
Recommendation: Keep IPTC Metadata Preset if you use a compatible Sony camera and want to prepare metadata presets on your Mac. If you do not use this camera workflow, you can remove it without affecting the rest of macOS.
