melmann Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I download my RAW files from CF card to external HD and then into my LR catalog. When I look at the metadata listed in LR it is much less information than when I download the same images into Olympus Master 2. In the latter I see the white balance, whether the image stabilization is on or off, metering modes, saturation level, etc. Apparently this information is all stored with the file but none of it shows up in LR. Is there a way to see all this information in LR? I don't want to reload pictures into the Olympus software just to see the rest of the metadata. I'm using LR on an iMac 2.4GHz, 20" screen, OS X 10.5.5. My camera is an Olympus E510 using the most recent firmware update. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phule Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Did you choose "All" in the Metadata panel in Lightroom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melmann Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Rob, Yes, I did. Perhaps LR can't read all the data in the Olympus file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melmann Posted October 25, 2008 Author Share Posted October 25, 2008 When I look in the .xmp files for a photo all the data I see in Olympus Master is in the file - it's just not showing up in Lightroom. Guess Adobe wanted to limit the amount of space to show metadata. Well, for any specific image I want to recall the detailed settings on I can always reload in Olympus Master.
