Title: BenQ camera out
Post by: MOL on December 26, 2012, 01:32:09 PM
Hi Phil

Just wanted to let you know that there seems to be a new camera manufacturer out there (at least I haven't heard of him yet): BenQ. When I open images from the G1 camera, I get several minor warnings with ExifTool 9.09; amongst them Unrecognized MakerNotes. Can you please check and add this camera?

Thanks and Merry Christmas

Hi Uwe,

Thanks.  Here is a list of BenQ cameras that I have tested (https://exiftool.org/models.html#BenQ).

Yes, ExifTool doesn't yet decode the makernotes from these cameras.

Now I'm embarrassed... :)

Sorry, I've never heard of that manufacturer and to be honest, I haven't seen your list of tested cameras before either. Thanks for posting; very interesting!
