How to obtain statistics for only a subset of files?

The Statistics app is interesting, but I haven't seen a way to limit its reporting to just a subset of files. I wanted to analyze files from just one compact camera to see which focal lengths, apertures, shutter speeds, and ISOs I've used. Files from that camera are scattered among numerous subfolders. I eventually gave up and used a different app that's designed to do it - but only by examining the actual collection of tens of thousands of files - which took a long time.

The output of that app is a ready-made bar chart, which is fine, but I would also be okay with a text file that I could graph myself.

Is there some simple way for IMatch to provide an output of those statistics (and maybe others) for a single camera?

That might work. I can limit the selected files to a specific camera model, but the existing charts can't show the different counts of, for example, the range of apertures in those files. Can someone give me a hint as to how I could edit this chart to do that? Everything I've tried just produces a single bar showing the total number of files.
