The values of focal length and aperture in the metadata need to be read with precaution!
I'm still using older manual focused lenses therefore lens data has to be changed on the camera manually when changing the lens. This may be forgotten sometimes. The 28 mm shift lens aperture is not assigned – by 3.5 is always displayed the largest aperture.
