Is there any advantage in using the .PEF file format other than reduced size on the SD card? Such as better lens info in the EXIF etc. Apologies if this has been asked before. Currently I'm using .DNG and I'm not getting lenses like Tamron 28-75 and Sigma 70-200 in EXIF, I'm sure somebody mentioned them appearing.
It's a long shot but, will perceived exposure be affected? Regards, John ----- John, recognizing lenses depends on (a) the lens's chip properly transmitting the information, and (b) the camera's firmware recognizing what the lens transmits. Apparently for many (all?) third-party lenses, this doesn't happen. Camera Raw can't address that. Pentax isn't under any obligation to write firmware that recognizes lenses other than their own. And I don't know whether third-party chips even attempt to transmit the information. Perhaps someone has a different experience. I am using Pentax lenses these days for 99.9% of my shooting.
