wish: EXIF - Lens model

[quilmore]

Hi
I'm very happy with PP and would like it to have one feature that if it has it I couldn't find it
I'd like the exif data to say what lens I had use to take that picture, not just the focal length
For instance, I have 3 lenses that can take a picture at 85 mm and 2 lenses mostly each other distance

at the momment I have:
<EXIF_CAMERA_MODEL> - <EXIF_FOCAL_LENGTH> - <EXIF_APERTURE> - <EXIF_EXPOSURE_TIME> - <EXIF_ISO> iso - <EXIF_CAPTURE_DATE>

thanks for this great software

PS: something else I'd like is to have some mailing list for each new entry, at present I'm using http://www.rssfwd.com/ to forward rss to emails, but it may not be so difficult to integrate that to PP

A short while ago I made an addon which does exactly this.

You can download it here: http://xerxes.dk/35mm.zip

Unzip it in your addons-directory and you can then add the tag &lt;EXIF_FOCAL_LENGTH_35MM> in your template. Be sure to set the correct $focal_multiplier in the top of the 35mm.php-file.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Dennis for your prompt response
your recomendation is very good
but is not what I'm looking for

what I need is something that tells me the lens I'm using
not the focal length (or the equivalent focal lenght)

I get something like "85mm" taken at f/8
but I also would like to see if it was taken with a 18-200mm or with a 85mm f/1.8 or with a 80-200 f/2.8
I own those 3 lenses and a picture taken at 85mm could be done with either of them
is it possible to get from the exif what lens was attached to the camera at the time of the picture?
Kind regards

not by the standard exif, but if you use lightroom or aperture you can try the XMP data.
