it is 50/50....it's all about exif data
many apps and even windows can display you this info...it depends if the camera was set up to also embed that information. For just basic windows xp viewing, right click and properties.
Also, often opening, editing and saving will destroy the exif data, unless the app was able to retain that original info.
you can also just do th is:
Exif viewer : Opanda IExif - Professional EXIF / GPS / IPTC Viewer & Editor in Windows, IE & Firefox Exif Harvester - Photography Analytics Software
If you did not know about exif data, it is much more important you read up on what it is before you start doing any much more. Though you don't have to
