Here is the link for the EXIF-related template tags available in Pixelpost. I'm not seeing any that would show the lens information, however.

This could be for multiple reasons.

1) There is no EXIF info stored in the image. Consequently, there will be no EXIF in the database for an image. For example, "Save for Web" in PS CS3 will not store EXIF in the images.
2) You used an older version of Pixelpost and upgraded to 1.71. From Pixelpost 1.7 the EXIF information is stored into the database. We have provided an addon to store the EXIF (if available) from older pictures in the database so you can use that. The old method is obsolete and is not supported.
3) The addons use the old method of replacing and finding stuff from the images. This is obsolete, you should either contact the author or find another way.
4) Write your own addon (or ask someone to write it).

Hi Dennis,

But, the only solution is number 4 because in Pixelpost 1.7.1 and any other addons there isen't any tag for Lens Info... not?

I had to put it in manually, but it was simple to do when I was adding a photo. If you were importing a bunch of photos though it would take a while.

Yes, because I export the photos with lightroom directly, and with this addon I need to go to admin page amd manually modify the field...

I think that is very ease for the pixelpost experts to write an addon to show the Lenes info. I don't have the experience in PHP to do this :-(
