Is it possible to identify the specific memory card used for a photo—such as the card model, specs, or serial number—by checking the image metadata (for example, EXIF data)?

No, this is not part of the standard for EXIF, which means there's no standard way to store it in image files.

Generally, no. Standard EXIF/image metadata does not include information about the memory card used to store the photo, such as card model, specifications, or serial number. Because that data is not part of the usual metadata standard, there is no reliable, standard way to recover it from the image file later. In normal workflows, the image contains camera and exposure details, but not storage-media identification.
