Maybe more than a decennium I use PhotoMe to read metadata from Pentax image files, now, with K1, this has come to an end.

When reading metadata from DNG files from my K5 (with PhotoMe), I can see the the manufacturer notes that inform a.o. the shutter count and the lens identification codes.

Reading a K1 file, the manufacturer notes are missing and I get an error message from PhotoMe.

Both cases I read directly from the same SD card.

LR6 seems to have no problem in reading the notes, because the correct lens name is displayed.........

Is an easy metadata reader like PhotoMe known, that could handle K1 files??

------->error message from PhotoMe:

2 problems were found in the metadata of this file.
1. Image tag DNG Private Data refers to Maker Notes in an unknown format
The Maker Notes format is not supported by PhotoME.

    2.    Too many items (17744) in IFD MakerNote (Manufacturer notes)
The number of tags in the Maker Notes IFD is very high. PhotoME has identified this as a problem and has ignored this IFD in the initialization process.

Possible reasons:
• PhotoME could not correctly determinate the base address of the Maker Notes
• The metadata may have been damaged by other software
