Photoshop CS2, Mac OS X. Opened IMGP3329.PEF, created a Photoshop PSD files, Save As to JPEG. EXIF Metadata in the PEF file reads ...

The *ist DS did not create the JPEG file, Photoshop CS2 did. If I import the PEF file with Lightroom and export a JPEG file: ... Software: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Date Time: Today, 9:43:37 AM ... again, as it ought to. If I open the PEF file with Camera Raw and save as directly to a JPEG file, these fields are not changed at all. I consider that an error. But as others have said, this should make no difference at all as to whether Pentax accepts or rejects a file. The Make, Model, Lens and all other bits of the EXIF metadata information are exactly as the camera set them.
