So beware.
For the sake of clarity, I'd like to add: Most commonly lenses are identified as (often ambiguous) numbers in EXIF (only seldomly as strings as one might expected). Exiv2 translates these numbers into human readable lens strings as best it can. These translation table are based on user contributions. The human readable lens string to distortion correction step is done in (lib)lensfun.
