Have you looked at 'exiftool'?

exiftool - print meta information from image files
SYNOPSIS
exiftool [OPTIONS] [-TAG or --TAG ...] FILE ...

Prints information for specified tags from listed files. -TAG specifies the
name of a tag to extract, or --TAG to ignore. FILE may be an image file
name, a directory name, or - for the standard input. Currently recognized

I have it on my RedHat laptop; it was able to return wads of info from
pictures taken with my Olympus D10, including shutter speed and
aperture, which is what I expect you are after.
