Samsung Schneider-Kreuznach D-XENON F2.8 100mm macro lens is not recognised.

I am running an old version of exiftool (8.15), but don't see an entry in the current web (2 Jan 2013) documentation.
LensType tag is (4 56).  I have updated my local Image/Exiftool/Pentax.pm, but you may wish to add this in the next release.

FWIW, Sigma 50-500mm F4-6.3 APO DG shows as a generic Sigma, but I suspect there is other competition for the (3 0) slot.

Cheers

Alan.

Hi Alan,

Great, thanks!  This lens will appear in ExifTool 9.13

Edit: Make that 9.14.  9.13 was released as a bug-fix version and didn't get this update.
