The corresponding Fedora-package is perl-Image-ExifTool.
Try
dnf install perl-Image-ExifTool
or
dnf install /usr/bin/exiftool
Another helpful tool in cases like the OP's is jhead (Package jhead),
a tool which allows to manipulate jpgs' exif data. I am using it to
achieve similar purposes as the OP in shell scripts.

Thanks Ralf, I had just downloaded the .tar.gz file but the rpm is
preferred of course.
I had tried just 'exiftool" but dnf didn't find it that way.
Installed:
perl-Image-ExifTool.noarch 9.90-1.fc22
Complete!
Thanks to Marku also, muc appreciated,
Bob
