Lens type change after silver effex pro 2

Can someone explain to me why DPLv1.2 is detecting a different lens type after returning from NIK silver Efex pro 2?

Hello Peter,

From what I see in your screenshot, the module is showed as “unknown” which means that when saving in NIK the lens info was not properly saved.

Hello Svetlana,

thanks for the reply.
So to understand completely,
DPL is sending the proper lens info with the tiff export but NIK is replacing that info with a same kind focal length and such (PL 12-60mm f2.8-4.0) except it’s a Olympus zuiko when it’s saves it and send back in the folder to dxo?

Hello @OXiDant,

it seems when you use Silver Efex in stand alone we lose some Exif / MakerNote information.
If you use it as a plug-in of Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom we don’t have that issue.

I’ll inform NIK team of that issue.

Hello Marie,

may i tell you that i use the dxo nik free version?
Not the payed re- wrote modified one.

i open raw in DPL v1.2 export to application, nik silver effex in this case, return by saving in nik, and F5 , refresh in DPL. or by changing folder and back.

Don’t know if this behaviour is also in the last version of dxo nik.

Hello @OXiDant,

unfortunately this issue is also on the DxO version.
NIK team has been informed and they will look into it.
