Lens and lens model metadata not being imported - amowry1 - 2025-02-25

I'd read about similar issues in the forum but I haven't found a solution for showing my lens model. It it listed in my photo metadata in two places (aux:Lens and exifEX:LensModel):

<rdfBig Grinescription rdf:about=""
xmlns:aux="http://ns.adobe.com/exif/1.0/aux/">
<aux:SerialNumber>072051007237</aux:SerialNumber>
<aux:LensInfo>80/1 200/1 0/0 0/0</aux:LensInfo>
<aux:Lens>EF80-200mm f/2.8L</aux:Lens>
<aux:LensID>21</aux:LensID>
<aux:LensSerialNumber>0000000000</aux:LensSerialNumber>
<aux:ImageNumber>0</aux:ImageNumber>
<aux:FlashCompensation>0/1</aux:FlashCompensation>
<aux:Firmware>1.2.0</aux:Firmware>
</rdfBig Grinescription>
<rdfBig Grinescription rdf:about=""
xmlns:exifEX="http://cipa.jp/exif/1.0/">
<exifEX:LensModel>EF80-200mm f/2.8L</exifEX:LensModel>
</rdfBig Grinescription>

Could anyone tell me how to have zenphoto import these? I'm happy to edit the .php files if necessary. Thanks!

Try the support build 1.6.6a please.

Thank you! Is there a single file I can update or do I need to install the complete package?

Always the complete package- careful on production sites! - as we don't test standalone usage because everything is is naturally interconnected.

Is the metadata you list from your image file? Because it is XMP data, not EXIF data. You might need to enable the XMP_Metadata plugin and set its option to process your image extension.

Yes, that metadata is from the image file. I did try enabling the XM_Metadata plugin and had it process the .jpg and .jpeg extensions, but it didn't add the lens model. I guess I'll wait until the next release to upgrade, as I'm a bit nervous about altering my installation at the moment.

It will not properly work without some of the internal changes.

Althougl 1.6.6a seems pretty stable it's always good to have staging site for testing before updates. Can't you just setup one?
