Hello.

Are there any advances in this area (seen from another post some years ago, regarding Tamron lens and Canon TC2.0x) ?

I'm using exif in a batch file (.bat) to rename all my ARW files I'm shooting daily, according to datetime, sequence number and some tech specs of the camera and lens used to shoot it.

This works, BUT...

Now, using this Tamron lens ( Tamron SP 70-200 f2.8 Di VC USD G2 ) and a Sigma MC-11 or Metabones V (latest firmware on both) and a 2x TC from Canon (the first edition) I get different results:

The results are as follows:

Tamron Lens and MC-11:

Can anyone help me at least to rewrite the name of the lens correctly?
Even with conditionals on the exiftool


on Tamron + MC11 + TC2.0x:
[EXIF]          LensInfo                : 98-280mm f/2.8
[EXIF]          LensModel              : DT 98-280mm F2.8 SAM
[MakerNotes]    SonyFNumber            : 4.0                <---- should have been 5.6
[EXIF]          FocalLength            : 280.0 mm            <---- should have been 400mm
[EXIF]          FocalLengthIn35mmFormat : 280 mm              <---- should have been 400mm
[MakerNotes]    LensType                : Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM or Tamron Lens + Canon EF Adapter <---- all WRONG!!!
[MakerNotes]    LensSpec                : DT 98-280mm F2.8 SAM
[MakerNotes]    LensMount2            : A-mount (5)        <----  A-Mount?? NEVER!
[MakerNotes]    LensType3              : Sony LA-EA1 or Sigma MC-11 Adapter
[Composite]    LensID                      : TAMRON SP 70-200mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2 A025+1.4x

on Tamron + Metabones 5 + TC2.0x:
[EXIF]          LensInfo                : 98-280mm f/4
[EXIF]          LensModel              : TAMRON SP 70-200mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2 A025+1.4x  NOT 1.4x!!! 2.0!!!
[MakerNotes]    SonyFNumber            : 4.0                <---- should have been 5.6
[EXIF]          FocalLength            : 280.0 mm            <---- should have been 400mm
[EXIF]          FocalLengthIn35mmFormat : 280 mm              <---- should have been 400mm
[MakerNotes]    LensType                : E-Mount, T-Mount, Other Lens or no lens
[MakerNotes]    LensSpec                : 98-280mm F4 SSM OSS
[MakerNotes]    LensMount2            : E-mount
[MakerNotes]    LensType3              : Unknown (33002)
[Composite]    LensID                      : TAMRON SP 70-200mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2 A025+1.4x




So...
Can you help me at least to change the filename in the batchfile below so that when it finds these values, correct them to the appropriate names/models/focal lengths, please?

Thanks.


The batchfile I created to help me doing it is this:


File ImgRename.bat
Usage: ImgRename -f -i

On something shot with Sony a9 , Sigma MC-11 and Tamron SP 70-200 f2.8 Di VC USD G2
will give you something like:
2024-04-24__082605_ILCE-9__00001____S1-5000__Lens-_TAMRON SP 70-200mm F2.8 Di VC USD G2 A025_@200.0 mm_F2.8_ISO-100_.ARW

Maybe someone else can help with the bat file.

It looks as if the camera is storing incorrect EXIF metadata for some of your lens combinations, which really complicates the automatic lens identification.  I don't know if there is much that can be done here to improve this.  Certainly without samples my hands are tied.

What lens/adapter was used for each of these files?

Hello again.

I replaced the files in the folder with the files mentioned in this thread, on my OP.
You have the description of what was used in each of the photos.
Will this help?

Thanks.
Fernando

I just opened file indo on photoshop and...
For the one shot with the Canon TC2.0x and Sigma  MC-11 adapter, the camera identifies  this:

   <aux:SerialNumber>03772219</aux:SerialNumber>
   <aux:LensInfo>980/10 2800/10 28/10 28/10</aux:LensInfo>
   <aux:Lens>DT 98-280mm F2.8 SAM</aux:Lens>
   <aux:LensID>61675</aux:LensID>
   <exifEX:LensModel>DT 98-280mm F2.8 SAM</exifEX:LensModel>
   
This is absolutely wrong!!!
Where can the problem be located at?
Sigma MC-11?
Canon 2x?

Because if we use only one of these.. it works ok.
At least we can read Tamron sp 70-200...
