OK, that makes some sense. I must also admit that sometimes I have used the
filter in LR to select all pics taken with a particular camera. But I cannot
imagine that any camera fails to record that piece of info correctly, so I
still do not see much need for EDITING exif. Although I suppose that when I add
keywords in LR I am doing something similar.
Cheers,
Nathan
