    Is there something I can do to read (and display) the lens used for a photo? I see refrence to it in the file PhotoExif.php, but there is no data in the table sonnb_xengallery_photo. Should this software parse the lens ID?

    I was thinking about it since I do the Exif reading in XenGallery. It is interesting feature which could be a key feature for photo sites. But I realized that it requires lot of workloads for correct detection among various of existing lens. Therefore I had decided to keep it for later.

    Thanks @sonnb Would it be possible to store the data in the database in a future version? Even if you don't actually use it. If I can get to the data my plan is to create collections for each lens. Then I will run my own script looking for specific lenses in the exif data. I will insert the relevant data into sonnb_xengallery_collection_item.

    I would be highly appreciated if you could share me your lenses exif data collection. With that I could go faster into the integration. It might not include everything but it matches your need.
