It's a lens problem. IIRC Sig[nificant} Ma[lfunctions] does not license
lens data from any manufacture and reverse engineers everything so there
are often conflicts between firmware in later Non Sigma cameras and
earlier Sigma lenses. I think sigma offers an update service, but I
could be wrong about that. These problems used to be so prevalent that
there was a web site dedicated to them, it was sometimes fun to read,
but seems to have disappeared a few years ago. I haven't cared enough
to see if it was saved by the Wayback Machine.

Dear group,
I aquired the Sigma 8-16mm lens for use on my K5.
I noticed that the camera does not show any lens name in the metadata
info in Lightroom (version 4.4) and the focal length is only mentioned
down to 10 mm, 9 and 8 is blank.
Camera SW version is 1.14, (the latest)
Is this a camera problem or a Lightroom problem?
Greetz, Jos
