Hi Phil,

From the first Sony ILCE-7M2 samples I found (Software : ILCE-7M2 v1.00), the following changes to Sony.pm would appear to largely cover this model:
- SonyModelID = 340
- should be added to the Condition for Tag2010g
- Tag9405 starts with x9a which can be added to the Condition for Tag9405b

Regards,
Jos

Hi Jos,

Thanks. This will appear in ExifTool 9.78.

Hi Phil,

In my Canon 70D, with Exiftool 9.76, the Tokina AT-X 12-28 PRO DX (http://www.tokinalens.com/tokina/products/atxpro/atx1228prodx/) is listed like this:

Code Select

>exiftool "-lens*" *.cr2
======== Tokina 12-28mm.CR2
Lens Type                       : Canon EF-S 17-85mm f4-5.6 IS USM
Lens Drive No AF                : Focus search on

Lens                            : 12.0 - 28.0 mm (35 mm equivalent: 18.9 - 44.2 mm)

It is unfortunately the same ID (234) as the Canon EF-S 17-85mm f4-5.6 IS USM, which I also own:

Code Select

Thanks for your dedication!

One more thing regarding the Sigma APO 50-150mm - when I've edited a JPEG shot using that lens in Photoshop and saved it, the lens is identified as an AF-S VR Nikkor 600mm f/4G ED:

Code Select


Field Of View                   : 20.6 deg
Focal Length                    : 66.0 mm (35 mm equivalent: 99.0 mm)
Lens ID                         : AF-S VR Nikkor 600mm f/4G ED
Scale Factor To 35 mm Equivalent: 1.5
Camera Model Name               : NIKON D3200
Make                            : NIKON CORPORATION
Lens                            : 50.0-150.0 mm f/2.8
Lens ID                         : 152
Lens Info                       : 50-150mm f/2.8

Don't know if that information is relevant. The sequence of hex numbers that ExifTool found in the original file

Code Select

Lens ID: Unknown (98 48 50 76 24 24 4B 0E) is nowhere to be found in this new file saved by Photoshop.

Phil Harvey · December 30, 2014, 03:38:35 PM

Thanks. ExifTool may still mis-identify the lens in images mangled by Photoshop, but 9.79 will get the lens correct for original images.

Thanks! Is the the B001 model? If so, I wonder why the LensID changed since ExifTool already recognizes this lens with a slightly different LensID.

I have the Sigma AF 180 f 4.0 Makro which is shown as "Sigma 24-105mm f/4 DG OS HSM | A" on my Canon. But where can I find the ID-Number?

Phil Harvey · February 13, 2015, 06:47:12 AM

Thanks. That's enough information. It is ID 255. (You could get this by extracting -lenstype#.)

This will appear in ExifTool 9.85 as "Sigma AF 180mm f/4.0 Macro".

- Phil

Menace · February 13, 2015, 09:53:20 AM

Sorry, Phil, I made a mistake. The correct name should be: "SIGMA APO Makro 180mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM " or "MAKRO 180mm F2,8 EX DG OS HSM"
