Hello All!

I have problem.

When copy metadata using "exiftool -tagsfromfile" from NRW - image  (Nikon CoolPix p6000)  to other Jpeg/tif/png - images does not copy MakerNotes group.
This problem does not reproduced for other Nikon image format (NEF).
example:

exiftool -tagsfromfile nrw_image.nrw jpeg_image.nrw

I waiting for answers.

I just tried this, and get the following warning:

Warning: MakerNotes too large to write in JPEG segment

I'll see if I can find a solution to this.
...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

Turns out that one of the makernotes tags is too large to fit in a JPEG segment.  I will add a patch to drop this tag when copying, which should fix the problem.

This update will appear in ExifTool 8.42 when it is released.

Thanks for reporting this.
