Pentax lens not recognised
Added by S. Verdoold about 9 years ago
The "smc PENTAX-DA 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 ED AL [IF] DC WR" lens is also not recognised by exiv2:
exiv2 -pt IMGP4060.JPG | grep -i lens
Exif.Pentax.LensType Byte 4 Unknown (0x08d7)
Exif.Pentax.LensInfo Undefined 67 168 48 0 215 82 40 86 47 64 85 1 15 32 217 171 112 48 1 81 130 251 255 255 255 215 33 101 1 20 32 170 184 0 0 0 0 0 255 240 215 232 0 188 200 48 15 0 0 0 0 0 0 128 0 25 79 240 11 49 187 15 242 128 187 16 82 139
whereas it seems that exiftool does recognise it:
../Image-ExifTool-9.02/exiftool ./IMGP4060.DNG | grep -i lens
Lens Type : smc PENTAX-DA 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 ED AL [IF] DC WR
Lens F Stops : 6
Lens ID : smc PENTAX-DA 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 ED AL [IF] DC WR
I hope the above information already helps a bit in a possible fix. If more data or information is needed for a possible fix please let me know!

Hey S:
Has this matter now been answered with your patch?

Hey Robin,
The "Lens Type" is now correctly identified. The patch by Pascal de Bruijn already fixed that. (My patch simply adds to Pascals patch so I guess both should be applied). The LensInfo part is unchanged (and it would require more than just adding some ID's to change it I guess). The main point about the lens recognition has been answered by the patches however.
