Hi,

I´va been looking for a gallery for my pictures and found zenphoto. I am always interested in which Lens I did use for which Photo and want to make it conventient :-)

Thus I want to adopt Exifier to get Sony/Minolta Lens ID-Support.

I know that the information is in the maker tags of sony as an integer (i32u) and I found a table to relate the integer to "plan text": http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/Sony.html

I did never write php-scripts but i am familiar with Basic, Pascal and a bit C++ thus the basics of code writing are there for me. Anything else I need to know, I will probably find out.

[B]First step:[/B] (I guess)

Modify exif.php as you can see below:

[quote]#
if(eregi("NIKON",$make)) {
...
} else if(eregi("Canon",$make)) {

require_once(dirname(FILE) . '/makers/canon.php');

parseCanon($data,$result,$seek,$globalOffset);

$result[$ifd_name]['KnownMaker'] = 1;

ADD SONY AS MAKER

} else if(eregi("SONY",$make)) {

require_once(dirname(FILE) . '/makers/sony.php');

parseSony($data,$result,$seek,$globalOffset);

$result[$ifd_name]['KnownMaker'] = 1;

ADD SONY AS MAKER

} else if(eregi("FUJIFILM",$make)) {
.....

Now I should be able to write a [B]makers/sony.php[/B] and try it! Or am I wrong?

Did anyone ever try this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi tried the following yesterday. Just to test if my thoughts are right I did:

• Take a Canon-Image and changed the maker into "SONY" using ExifTool. Leaving all the other Information as it is.
• I simply copied "canon.php" into "sony.php"

The result is, that when uploading is done, the browser shows a white page and stop. Nothing is uploaded.

What is the problem?

Thanks in Advance.
