Title: EXIF library update ?
Post by: lurkalot on February 20, 2010, 01:41:25 am

Can anyone tell me if there's any updates for the exif library?

For some reason a image uploaded to my gallery which was shot with a Canon 50D is showing as Make = NIKON CORPORATION, and Model  Nikon D50.  Any ideas why this could be?

Looking at the image with other exif readers say it's a Canon 50D which is correct.

Link to gallery (image) is here, http://cameracraniums.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-5936

That's the EXIF data from an entirely different picture. Empty the EXIF table using phpMyAdmin to force it to be re-read.

Thank you, that sorted it nicely.    I'll mark as solved.

I would however like to know why this happened, and is it something I need to worry about?

My guess would be you had a picture in your gallery previously with the same filename.

Thanks for the reply Nibbler.

Now that I know that, I guess it would pay me to empty the exif table every now and then to make sure all is in order. ;)

Cheers, and thanks for all your help.
