Bug? K3 does not make Lens ID available in Aperture and iPhoto

The lens name in LR is "Sigma or Tamron Lens." I forget how Exiftool IDs it, but I remember seeing the full string that identifies it in there.

I picked up the Porst on ebay. It's a popular f/1.2 lens. One of the less expensive ones. :)

In the EXIF for my sigma, you can see '3 44' (which translates to Sigma or Tamron Lens) but you can also see '3 44.1' which translates to "Sigma AF 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC" -- Trouble seems to be that Lightroom is reading the field the first one is in, and not the second field with the more complete lens ID.

Whether that's caused by the camera or not, I have no idea.

Happens to me all the time with my Sigma 10-20 lens, even though the necessary ID is in the exif data and exiftool can identify it. Never seen it happen with a Pentax brand lens though.
