Lensfun -- most cameras and lenses missing

Hello Digikam people
I've just installed Digikam on a new installation of ArchLinux. Everything is pretty much up to date -- Digikam is 2.2.0. Most of it works well, but the Lens Auto-Correction screen only lists a few cameras and lenses, nowhere near the whole list that I can see in the Lensfun xml files. Strangely, the first time I try to use lens auto-correction, only Samsung cameras are listed; the second time, I see Fujifilm, Kodak, and Nikon too; with further attempts, no more cameras appear. Which is a pity, because my camera is a Canon. On the console, I can see these error messages: digikam(976)/digikam (core) Digikam::DimgInterface::getImg: d->image is NULL digikam(976)/digikam (core): ERROR: LensFun Interface Lens device is null. Googling on those hasn't turned up anything useful. It may be that I've got some libraries missing from ArchLinux. cheers Chris -- Chris Dennis [hidden email] Fordingbridge, Hampshire, UK _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

Thanks for your reply, but I can see that /usr/share/apps/digikam/lensfun/ contains a big range of camera and lens definitions; slr-canon.xml contains my camera and my lens. But only a few of those definitions show up in digikam. I know that digikam is using those files, because changes I make in the Samsung file show up in digikam. Aha! That suggests a work-around. If I copy the Canon camera and lens definitions that I need into the Samsung file, they show up and are automatically selected in digikam! So now I can make progress and apply corrections to my photos. There's a bug in there somewhere though. cheers Chris -- Chris Dennis [hidden email] Fordingbridge, Hampshire, UK _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

I just make the a test, I'm on Opensuse 11.04 and KDE47 stable repository
and things seems to be ok here. My main lens still not here (sigma 17-70mm) but it's due to the fact it is not here I think, since I see a various manufacturer and lens references (included Canon's ones). Could be the matter in the packaging ?

It's more likely that you use a lens that's not in the exiv2 database. Can be that you got a new batch of the lens that have a new ID that exiv2 doesn't recognizes. Check which lens ID the exiv2 tool show you from command line. Is OpenSuse using the latest exiv2 0.22? It contains the latest lens database. If that doesn't work make a bug report to the exiv2 team with an example image that have meta data in the image with the unsupported lens ID. I did so recently with my Tamron 17-50/2.8 with Nikon mount that was in a new batch. /Philip On Nov 1, 2011 8:44 AM, "Photonoxx" <[hidden email]> wrote:

Sorry, disregard my latest post. Missed that this was about lensfun and lens correction and not exiv2 and meta data. With meta data and lens ID the above comment is true. With lensfun and lens correction there is an other database. Noticed that my Tamron 17-50/2.8 isn't in the lensfun database so I will contribute the correction data using Hugin to lensfun when I get time this weekend. /Philip On Nov 1, 2011 2:03 PM, "Philip Johnsson" <[hidden email]> wrote:

The camera and lens IDs from the EXIF data are picked up correctly. The problem is that digikam/lensfun is not reading all of the .xml files in the /usr/share/apps/digikam/lensfun/ directory. It reads slr-samsung.xml and a few others, and it all works if I copy the data for my camera and lens from slr-canon.xml to slr-samsung.xml. cheers Chris > > If that doesn't work make a bug report to the exiv2 team with an example > image that have meta data in the image with the unsupported lens ID.

Philip,
Your remark about Exiv2 is right. digiKam lensfun interface use Exiv2 to get lens description from metadata and past it to lensfun to find relevant item in lens DB.

Just to say, personally I don't have matter with lens... I see a lot of
lens (include Canon), I just send a message which said the matter doesn't seem to come from Digikam 2.2 since there's no matter with it on Opensuse.
