Hi guys,

I havent seen anything on redmine or launchpad to this, so i thought that i'd first check that it wasnt a known bug. I know that Shotwell doesn't handle RAW's particularly well at present, and that is fine, but i just noticed another discrepancy in the handling of them. When you import plain RAW (not RAW+JPG pairs), in thumbnail form, the extended information and the exposure, aperture etc. displays correctly, however upon processing and first load of the image, shotwell loses the EXIF data totally.

The date/time is still there but exposure, aperture, flash, focal length etc is all gone as the extended information is getting the exif data from the processed image, to which shotwell does not copy exif data to. It doesn't matter if the developer is the camera or shotwell, it loses the data in the developed image and, of course, in the RAW is still there.

If anyone who knows more about coding than i do needs some RAW's to play with i am happy to dump a sample of some from different cameras at different time periods on my web-space and post a link to the group if need be.

Does this already have a ticket, because i couldn't see one, and if not would you like me to create one?

Thanks for pointing this out. The following ticket is related to this problem and I've updated it based on your comments:

I hope we can improve the situation for 0.13.
