Hi again.

The latest version of Photome is 0.79R17 Build 856. You can either update or download it here.

This recognises the 150-500.

I would guess that the 70-210 is the default if it does not see a recognised lens id string.
Thanks Oggy, I downloaded Photome and it recognises the 150-500mm lens.
I have the latest version of Lightroom and exiftool and they are both wrong, I suppose I,ll be OK when they upgrade.

I recently purchased a Sigma 150-500mm lens, when used on my K20 the EXIF data reports a "Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 MACRO HSM II".
Warehouse Express say this is because it is a Sigma lens which is re-engineered for Pentax therefore the EXIF lens data is unreliable.
Any comments?
John
