SUMMARY Conversion of RAW images to DNG during import creates wrong EXIF data. Camera: Panasonic DC-GX9 At least the "Lens Model" is missing in the DNG file. This is critical, because images are displayed without any lens correction! STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. import a RW2 image from Panasonic DC-GX9 using conversion to DNG 2. have a look to EXIF parameter: Lens is missing 3. convert the same image with Adobe DNG converter 4. have a look to EXIF parameter: Lens is mentioned 5. compare both converted iamges: images imported with DigiKam are distorted OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Tested here with a DC-GX9 RAW => DNG file, the lens correction still works fine because the lens information has been copied to the XMP metadata. Due to a bug in Exiv2 we have to delete the makernotes at the moment. I will try to reproduce the bugs in Exiv2 with the CLI Tool and then create a bug report on Exiv2. Maik
digiKam 7.0.0-beta1 is out : https://download.kde.org/unstable/digikam/ This problem still reproducible with this version which include Libraw engine version 0.20.0 ? Thanks in advance and merry Christmas
