Adding EXIF Info to Images in C#

I want to add basic exif info to images like author,camera model,date etc.Is there a way to do this using the Inbuilt classes without using other external libraries.Does the image formats like JPEG,PNG,TIFF,BMP,GIF Support all EXIF Fields.

System.Drawing allows modifying the image properties with PropertyItems/SetPropertyItem. A sample can be found here.

But this access is quite basic and there are quite a few libraries around (see for instance How to edit EXIF data in .NET). So I wonder if it's worth the trouble.

After all, only JPEG and TIFF files support EXIF metadata according to Wikipedia.
