Mixed up metadata for Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 VC USD

[Beholder3]

I just had a look at a RAW shot with the new Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3  VC  USD on Canon.

In the makernotes I read the following:

Lens Model TAMRON SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD A011
Lens Type Canon EF 90-300mm f/4.5-5.6 USM

Something is confusing here.

The RAW file is here: http://daten-transport.de/download.php?id=UtDH4GZVLN2x&dateinummer=265139

Thanks!

Confusing?  Isn't this just another Tamron Lens that is re-purposing one of the Canon LensType values?  This is normal.

It will appear in the next release.
