Hello,

seems that Pentax changed some exif-settings in the brand-new K3-III.
(similar was reported on pentaxforum by other users also).


exiftool -LensID -LensType Exiftest.jpg
Lens ID                         : smc PENTAX-DA 40mm F2.8 Limited + 1.3x converter
Lens Type                       : smc PENTAX-DA 40mm F2.8 Limited


It is the "converter" text that it wrong in LensID. Other users had this issue with other lenses also, so it does not seem to be lens-related.
I'l attach a sample jpg if that helps (camera in jpg-mode, I only reduced the size for upload using "mogrify"). Let me know if you need a full-size jpg or the dng file.

Exiftool Version is libimage-exiftool-perl (11.16-1) in Debian buster.

...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 ($).

brilliant and sorry for my question, I should have tried that before.
So I can confirm that everything is fine in version 12.25
