Hi Phil,

0x0076 is set to '3'='ON' in a HDR Shot. otherwise always '0'='OFF'.
While 0x009E is the Dynamic Range of an HDR-Shot.

And 0x008B is the Whitebalance-Shift in 'intelligentAuto(+)' Modes.
Here it is a signed short for _one_ Shift Blue to Amber -9 .. +9 .

And 0x0092 is the WB-Shift in 'Creative-Control' Mode.
It is a signed Byte  -2..0..+2.
In some styles it is the strength of the style ... in other it is a WB-Shift.

Greetings from Germany

Thanks!  Typical of the crappy camera firmware to write unsigned format codes for signed values. :(

About the WB-Shift in Creative-Control mode:  What would you call this tag since it is also the style strength?  Maybe CreativeControlValue or something general like this?

YESSSS! 


This one is the WB-Menu of the WB-Button on the camera.
I would call it this way. Then you have a better chance to find it on your cam.

Hi Klaus,

Thanks, but I don't understand.  What was your suggestion for the tag name?  (Hopefully not "WBMenuOfTheWBButton")

Hihi ...

yes ... I tried to do exactly that!
But more and more I see that this isn't a good idea.

I'm not good in giving names. Please do it yourself :-)

OK, thanks.  I'll see what I can do.
