Well it's available from the website of both Exiftool and the exiv2
library. Reverse-engineered and based on user feedback I assume:
http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/Pentax.html#LensType

My point is that Pentax would probably gain as a small brand by
publishing the code-to-description mappings themselves. It would vouch
for a faster implementation in all software.
