I'm using exiftool from the command line, and everything is working well. I have only one minor issue: Currently, it reports things like

Code Select

24.0-120.0 mm f/4.0 for the $Lens, which is correct as this is a Nikkor AF-S 24-120. However, I don't like the decimal. Is there a way to get the output to be the following?

Code Select

24-120 mm f/4.0

Same for $FocalLength: I get

Code Select

24.0 mm but would like

Code Select

24 mm

Which Lens tag is this? There are lots. (use "exiftool -a -G1 -lens FILE") The Nikon:Lens tag should not have the decimal point. If it is XMP:Lens, then this is stored as a string, and ExifTool is only reporting what was written by another application. But any tag can be reformatted through a user-defined Composite tag if you want.
