Hi,
I have seen at the end of the page http://www.exiftool.org/TagNames/Panasonic.html some combinations of the tags SceneMode and AdvancedSceneType that create the AdvancedSceneMode information.
Using my TZ40 camera, I have some new information to complete your table. I have obtained them making photos in the 'creative control' mode, with all the different modes.
-> See file attached (remark: the tags 90 3/4/5/6/7 are different that the ones of your table).
See also the discussion on the exiv2 forum: http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/929
Thanks. It is a pity if Panasonic changes the meaning of some scene modes, but at least it isn't as bad as Casio (where they are all different for every model).
Would it be possible to post the attachment in plain text (or CSV)? I can't easily open an open document spreadsheet. Thanks.

I have converted the ods into an html file.
And below plain text, for the different modes of the camera (Full auto, non auto (A,P,S, SCN) and Creative control).
For 'Creative control' mode:
(texts in French and English, as they appear in the 'Creative control' modes of the camera):
Scene mode (0x8001) = 66 (Digital Filter)
AdvancedSceneType (0x003d):
1 ART Impressionisme IART Impressive Art
2 TCR Dévelop. croisé XPRO Cross Process
3 COUL Désaturation partielle 1CLR One Point Color
4 EFF* Filtre étoile STAR Star Filter
Scene mode (0x8001) = 90 (Creative Control)
AdvancedSceneType (0x003d):
1 EXPS Expressif EXPS Expressive
2 RETR Rétro RETR Retro
3 EXP+ Tons clairs HKEY High Key
4 SEPI Sépia SEPI Sepia
5 DYN+ Dynamique haute HDYN High Dynamic
6 MINI Effet miniature MINI Miniature Effect
9 EXP- Clair-obscur LKEY Low Key
10 APPJ Effet jouet TOY Toy Effect
11 MONO Monochrome dynamique MONO Dynamic Monochrome
12 DOUX Mise au point douce SOFT Soft Focus
For 'Automatic' mode (iA):
AdvancedSceneType=5 (shooting mode = as detected automatically by the camera: 37 ; 2, 3, 9, 55, ....)
For non automatic modes (P, A, S, SCN):
AdvancedSceneType=1 (shooting mode = P, A, S or all the different SCN: 6, 7, 8 ; 2, 3, 55, .....)
This is great, thanks!
I will have to add some model-specific logic for the TZ40 to resolve the conflicting AdvancedSceneMode values when SceneMode is "Creative Control". It would be nice to know which other models use the same values.
