Hi all !
Never saw this before... These two tags are marked as "--" which make no sense as the camera model and make are always displayed.
I've taken DXO samples to compare and the tags are correctly filled (i-e "Xiaomi" for Make and "M2101K7BNY" for Camera Model Name, which stands for Redmi Note 10 S).
I'm pretty confident that these photos are original and taken with a Redmi Note 10 S.
Any idea what could cause what appears to be a glitch ?
Thanks !

I have seen similar things written by pre-production cameras.

If you look at the
-v3 (
-verbose3) (https://exiftool.org/exiftool_pod.html#v-NUM--verbose) output, you can see that the dashes are the actual data and not a glitch on exiftool's part.

Thank you to both of you !
@Phil: what's a "pre-production camera" ? You mean pro camera for filmmakers ?
@StarGeek: interesting, thanks for the check. Do you think that that kind of data might be created by the integrated Xiaomi software/firmware ?

I would think that it would be for an early version of the camera's software before going into full scale production, though since this appears to be the camera on a phone, that seems quite odd to me.

If it's coming straight from the phone and hasn't been edited by any software or app, then I don't see any other answer.
You might check to see if there's an update. Some sites I googled seem to indicate there was an update last month, but they didn't appear to be the official site.

Good point. I haven't seen this for a phone.
