Hi,

It would be nice if Digikam could compute the 35mm equivalent focal length of   pictures when the field is missing in the exif.
For instance if you take a picture using Canon EOS 400D at 20mm , it should fill in the 35mm equivalent focal length field of the database with 32=20*1.6.
Here is a database of camera sensor sizes released under creative commons, it may be useful for this wish: http://www.autopano.net/wiki/Cameras.txt

Yes, I agree with this one. See bug #138704, comment 24.

35mm focal length eq. is show since a long time by Exiv2 in digiKam metadata viewer.
