Description

With exiv2 0.23, I get:

exiv2 -pt Tamron_AF_18-270mm_f__3.5-6.3_Di_II_VC_PZD--25.0mm--4.0_IMG_7456.CR2 | grep LensType
Exif.CanonCs.LensType                        Short       1  Tamron AF 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD

However, current SVN exiv2 yields:

exiv2 -pa Tamron_AF_18-270mm_f__3.5-6.3_Di_II_VC_PZD--25.0mm--4.0_IMG_7456.CR2 | grep LensType
Exif.CanonCs.LensType                        Short       1  137

Hi Torsten.

I think it is the same problem as issue #926. Please check with an image taken with the shortest focal length (18mm). The lens should be detected correctly with that focal length.

I uploaded an image at 18mm here: http://wilson.bronger.org/Tamron_AF_18-270mm_f__3.5-6.3_Di_II_VC_PZD--18.0mm--3.5_IMG_7454.CR2

I see the same problem here:

$ exiv2 -pt Tamron_AF_18-270mm_f__3.5-6.3_Di_II_VC_PZD--18.0mm--3.5_IMG_7454.CR2 | grep -i lens
Exif.CanonCs.LensType                        Short       1  137
Exif.CanonCs.Lens                            Short       3  18.0 - 270.0 mm
Exif.Canon.LensModel                         Ascii      70  18-270mm

The lens is not detected at 18mm because "Exif.CanonCs.MaxAperture" return F3.6 and not F3.5 at that focal length. The Tamron 18-250mm I once had for Nikon did the same.

Unfortunately Canon makernotes does not seem to have a tag with "max aperture at min focal length".
