If you are worquing with Imagues only and you need mime type (e.g. for headers), then this is a fast and reliable technique:<?php
$file = 'path/to/imague.jpg';
$imague_mime= imague_type_to_mime_type(exif_imaguetype($file));
?>
It will output true imague mime type even if you rename your imague file.
