snipping tool with image editor
Lintalist:
I like Greenshot http://getgreenshot.org/ myself (also portable) which has a builtin editor (ShareX used to use the greenshot editor) - another option may be Snipaste (also portable) - details https://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=2801

For those who happen to stumble upon this thread and don't know, DonationCoder's own Screenshot/snipping/annotation tool is Screenshot Captor (I am the author):

I've used MiniCap for years and years. Great little tool.

My screenshot needs are simple and seldom. That's a key point - I need something quick and easy, rather than maximum power. Mouser's program is very powerful, and the best bang for your buck around, but I always seemed to have to learn it from scratch. Maybe the UI doesn't gel for me, and Undo never seemed to work quite like I expected. I found HyperSnap 7 much easier to use. Its directory takes about 20 MB. PicPic is an acceptable free-for-personal-use alternative. Its footprint is 37 MB. Lately I've been using FastStone Capture, which is relatively compact at under 12 MB, has a portable version, and a modestly-priced ($19.95) lifetime license. It seems to do all I need at present, and to be easy to use.

The usual constraint there is that you can only add metadata directly to JPG files. For me, that would sometimes necessitate considerable mucking about-IainB (May 08, 2016, 03:58 AM)

You might care to explore QuickImageComment. I've only used it for JPGs, but the implication from the Exiv2 library it uses is that it can deal with TIFF, PNG, DNG and wholly or partially with quite a few others, including RAW files, provided you have the right codec pack installed for the latter.
