No lens data in metadata area of Elements Organizer?

Report · May 10, 2020

I'm currently testing Adobe Photoshop Elements for use with Panasonic MFT cameras and lens, coming from Apple Aperture. I'm wondering that I did not find any lens data (except focal length etc) in the metadata section of Elements Organizer when I view a photo. Searching in Organizer's options and settings does not lead to a point where it can be enabled or viewed separately outside the metadata area. It is important for a photographer - I think not only for me - to know if a 25mm focal length comes from a fixed focal lens, a zoom lens and from which kind of zoom lens: one for $2000 or $300.

Is this a planned non-existing feature or a bug? How or when will it be possible to view lens data in Elements Organizer?

If you open a file in the Editor and look at the File>File Info dialog, you will find the size of the lens but not its make or model number.

I don't think this would be considered a bug. It would be more of a feature limitation.
