           Summary: Sony Alpha Super SteadyShot Meta Info
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.9.0
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: louis.roederer gmail com


Version:           0.9.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

The Sony Alpha A100 records if SteadyShot was on or off for each photo.  In my friends Windows Explorer, the metadata shows up.  Would it be possible to reveal this metadata in Digikam?  I would be eternally grateful.

Louis,

Sony alpha metadata are based on minolta makernote... The Sony Alpha use this makernote format to store new pictures informations. I'm sure, ihave check this point with some Sony picture samples and i have a Minolta Dynax 5D.

To handle properlly the Sony Makernote, the Minolta makernote parser from Exiv2 library need to be updated (i'm sure, i have written this parser (:=))). Nothing need to be done in digiKam for that.

Please file a wish in Exiv2 library bugzilla:

Thanks in advance.

Gilles,

I think I understand that the Exiv2 library has to be updated to
handle the Sony makernote data.  Is that right?

Also, digiKam tells me that my .arw raw files are not raw files when I
try to use the Raw Converter.  I am running Suse 10.2, digiKam 0.9,
and I have gotten the latest version of dcraw.  Am I doing something
wrong?

Yes.

RAWConverter is a kipi-plugins. This problem is fixed in current kipi-plugins implementation. Try 0.1.3-rc from http://www.kipi-plugins.org or use svn trunk

Nota : digiKam image editor can open ARW files.

Thanks for your help.  The kipi update did fix it!  You are a true
gentleman.  DigiKam is a fantastic program that just keeps amazing me.
 Thanks to you and the team.
