David,
Obviously these guys are skipping my post or ignoring what I have said.
I have a very serious and simple solution for Hasselblad: Include the data they want in the DNG as private tags.
Then they can petition Adobe to use it.
When Adobe ignores them because they don't have the SOFTWARE (or because it's a tiny market), they can complain about Adobe and it will no longer be a complaint about Hasselblad. This should take your programmers all of about three (3) hours. Could have it done by noon tomorrow and then order them another pizza pie.
For those of us whom understand the real issue (the difference between SOFTWARE and METADATA), we'll wait until Adobe defines plugin standards for LR and ACR so manufacturers can work on the image stream directly.
Trust me on this. They are not listening.
Kind regards,
Derek
