Sony makernote support
Added by Anonymous almost 13 years ago
First of all, thank you for great work.
I'm user of Sony A700/A900. Basically, makernote of Sony DSLR have
backward compatibility with Minolta's one.
But current implementation of exiv2 does not use minolta's makernote
information for sony's. (minoltamn.cpp and sonymn.cpp are completely
separated.)
For example, I desire to extract lens information from JPEG file
of Sony A700/900, but lens ID table only exist in minoltamn.cpp.
Alpha mount lens is common to Minolta and Sony body, so it should be used
in minoltamn.cpp and sonymn.cpp in common.
Any reason or idea ?

Sony makernotes definitely require some work. Is this a duplicate of #611? If not, could you please open another issue for this and attach a sample picture.
Thanks,
Andreas

Thank you for quick reply.
If you support makernote in ARW file, I think JPEG makernote is also
supported automatically.
But for make sure, I'd like to upload sample JPEG file (of A700/A900).
Couold you tell me how I can upload them ?
Thank you!

Yes, please do that. Go to the issue, click Update in the right upper corner and then use the "Browse" button near the bottom of the form to select a file and submit.
