Hi,
How do I retrieve the Lens Manufacturer, Image Pixels (H & V), and Image Color Depth from the EXIF data. I have tried EXIF_Pixels, EXIF_PixelXDimension, EXIF_BitsPerSample, EXIF_LensMake, and many more. I had no trouble adding ISO. I am modifying the EXIF Editor demo, trying to add the missing parameters.

Hi

Can you email us some of your images for analysis?

These images are rather large, about 66 MB each. Tomorrow I will find one that includes lens data. I think Adobe Bridge is one of the programs that displays the lens manufacturer. I will try to reduce the size of an image so I can send it by e-mail, first making sure the lens data is still there.

Select the Reply button and then a link to attach a photo or zip is located under the text box.

that seemed odd because more stuff was exposed this time but not last.

A place that says "attach photo or zip" that wasn't there before. Anyway, here is an image with lens data.

Unfortunately the @ in your username breaks the attachment. You need to encode the @ as %40

I guess the difference was that I hit reply to topic instead of simply typing in the quick reply window and then hitting post.
Here is another picture, this time a screen capture showing the image data for this image as shown by Adobe Bridge. I can only show part of what is there at a time. I think the other program that also shows lens data is Corel Paint Shop Pro, but I can't verify that now.



Here is a revised list of the things I want to be able to access from the exif info, that I don't yet know how to.

Image Color Depth
Image Horizontal Pixels
Image Vertical Pixels
Lens Manufacturer
Lens Model
Lens Focal Length
Lens Maximum Aperture (Smallest f/Number)

Both images open in lightroom, and show in a windows directory as images in large icons. And the window opened showing download complete some time ago.

The first image is 493 X 328 pixels. Perhaps that size is not supported. The image is only 65.5 kb. I simply reduced the image by 10 by removing the fourth decimal. The second image is 463 X 608, and 71.5 kb., simply an arbitrary size due to cropping. They both open in Paint.

And they both load into my imageen exif demo modification I am working on. The second file has much less exif data. I just included it to show what the lens information in the first file looks like.

I was just about to try uploading the images again. But I see them on the screen. So I think the upload finally took, overnight.

Oops, I'm finding a few of the things I am needing are already there. These are Color Space is probably the same as color depth; EXIF Image Height and Width seem to be the pixels H & V, and I see the focal length.

I may have found maximum aperture.
FloatToStr(EXIF_MaxApertureValue)
The only problem so far is that a 1.2 lens shows as a 1
Right now I have pictures taken with only two different lenses, an f/2 and a f/1.2
the f/2 lens shows correctly.

EXIF_LensMake and EXIF_LensModel do not seem to work.

Actually, it is a 24mm f/2.8 that is showing as 1. So MaxApertureValue doesn't seem to be right.

Look at EXIF_ApertureValue in the help file. You'll have to round the APEX value accordingly.

Hi

Image Horizontal Pixels and Image Vertical Pixels will be EXIF_ExifImageWidth and EXIF_ExifImageHeight. I expect Image Color Depth is EXIF_ColorSpace in ImageEn (there is no color depth tag in the standard).

The following tags are not yet available in ImageEn:

Subject area
Subject location
Camera Owner Name
Body Serial Number
Lens Specification
Lens Make
Lens Model
Lens Serial Number
Gamma

And will be added in a coming version.

Also, see the source code of iexMetaHelpers, they show how to convert apex values for instance.

You can also use the helper functions:

Thank you very much for your help. I now have everything I really needed, but of course the lens manufacturer and model would be nice to add. Also, can you tell me about T-Stop. I know the T-Stop is in the lens description for the Zeiss lens. Are T-Stops found only in a lens model, or is there a field for it ?

Hi

I'm looking into adding these fields for the next update.

There does not seem to be a field in the standard for the T-Stop. Though the camera maker may store it in a non-standard location, such as the maker notes:
