When I open a JPG in Capture NX 2 and save it as a NEF, both Capture NX2 and View NX 2 can edit the metadata. Exif tool 9.0.1, 9.0.3, 9.0.5 gives an error:

OK, I give up. Why is the Make/Model in this NEF file "Canon Powershot G12"? The Canon doesn't write NEF format.
ExifTool has a problem due to this because the maker notes are not properly formatted Canon maker notes.

Well... Capture NX2 can open a canon .jpg file. Then I can use alle the nice things this Nikon software offers. Like versions, u-points, etc and of course "digital negative". So when I write this file as a NEF, it has Canon tags.
I know it sounds weird, but I use it a lot... Anything could become a NEF file, e.g. I als own a Sony Alpha.
Sorry I made your head explode ;-)
OK, cool. You learn something new every day.
I'll add support for this in ExifTool 9.06.
Thanks for the sample.

Really? Wohooo! Tx!
Tested... Problem Solved! Thank You!
