Description

I have the Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F/2,8 XR Di II LD Aspherical [IF] with Nikon mount. If I run the following I don't get a real LensIDNumber using Exiv2 0.22. Camera in use is a Nikon D7000:

$ exiv2 -pt SBP_1217.NEF | grep -i lens
Exif.Nikon3.LensType Byte 1 D G
Exif.Nikon3.Lens Rational 4 17-50mm F2.8
Exif.Nikon3.LensFStops Undefined 4 7
Exif.NikonLd3.LensIDNumber Byte 1 251
Exif.NikonLd3.LensFStops Byte 1 F7.0

I guess the Exif.NikonLd3.LensIDNumber should be "Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F/2,8 XR Di II LD Aspherical [IF]" or something like that and not just 251? Same with all .nef-files with this Tamron lens.

Not your tool but might give some interesting data:

exiftool SBP_1217.NEF | grep -i lens
Lens Type : G
Lens : 17-50mm f/2.8
Lens Data Version : 0204
Lens ID Number : 251
Lens F Stops : 7.00
Lens ID : Unknown (FB 54 2B 50 24 24 84 06)
Lens : 17-50mm f/2.8 G

Exiv2 uses the current Version 4.3.423.01 of the fmountlens list from http://www.rottmerhusen.com/objektives/lensid/files/c-header/fmountlens4.h

From Robert:
"yes most of the newer Tamron lenses have two ID's. I added the new one
to my list and updated the header file. Homepage will be updated with
the next major update in November or so."

I've updated the exiv2 list (r2621), use the svn trunk version to get the change, it is currently still binary compatible with 0.22.

Works fine now with r2621 but I also needed the r2620 commit to make it build without braking on 0.22.

Thanks.
