I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Modifying Canon:LensType
Hi Phil,

As you know, Canon EOS 7D (for example) raw file contains two LensType tags inside Makernotes (older cameras had one tag only).
If I modify this tag(s):
exiftool -n -canon:lenstype=150 myfile.cr2
-i get expected result (both of two tags are changed).

But, if I wish to set this tag to "Unknown(-1)" lens:
exiftool -n -canon:lenstype=-1 myfile.cr2
-then only one tag (22dec) is changed to -1, while another (239dec) doesn't change.

Any idea? Thanks for answering.
Bogdan
