Lightroom's metadata browser shows a lot of but not all of the Pentax lenses. I believe there is an error in how the PEF/DNG files have tagged the DA21 and DA70 lenses such that it cannot identify them. Any photos made with these two lenses show up in the "Unknown" category, whether taken with the K10D or the *ist DS. The focal length is reported properly when I look at the metadata for specific image files, but the lens name is not. Pentax Photo Browser does show the correct name, but nothing else I've got that can read the files does.
I guess I'll go poke in a couple of PEF files with John Francis' PEFViewer utility to see how they differ from, say, the FA43 which does get reported properly with either camera body.
