| Subject: | Minolta lens ID 255 wrongly assigned to a specific lens |
I have a 'Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical', and
pictures shot with it are wrongly reported as being shot with a 'Tamron
AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD MACRO 1:2' using exiftool.
Reading Minolta.pm, it looks like the corresponding ID (255) of my lens
is used by several ones:
255 => 'Tamron Lens (various models)',
# 255 => 'Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical',
# 255 => 'Tamron AF 55-200mm f/4-5.6 Di II',
# 255 => 'Tamron AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD MACRO 1:2',
# 255 => 'Tamron SP AF 200-500mm f/5.0-6.3 Di LD IF',
255 => 'Tamron AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD MACRO 1:2', #JD
exiftool should report the first string "various models", and not any
specific model, so the last line should be commented out as the others are.
