Re: Canon 450D (XSi) -FocusDistance tags
Hi Phil,

I know about -U (and -H) option, but in this case it didn't helped me much, as I only got array of tag values, i.e:
0x0043 Canon_CameraInfoUnknown_0x0043 : 1
0x0044 Canon_CameraInfoUnknown_0x0044 : 25
0x0045 Canon_CameraInfoUnknown_0x0045 : 0

-as (from above) I assume 43 and 44 belong together, I still can't interpret actual value (which comes from both). So to speak, looking at those values, it's hard to tell if that is "that".
So, I've decided for the hard way, which was easier for me in this case :-)

One question:
In Exiftool docs, for -a option, I can read: "Allow duplicate tag names in the output. Without this option, duplicates are suppressed."
-should I understand last statement like: "Without this option, duplicates (if they contain value 0) are suppressed."?
I mean... without -a, is tag value 0 criteria to not show it's presence?

Thank you for listening, Bogdan
