What I've seen in tools like PhotoME is that the "lens type" maker
note is just a number, and the software then has to look up that
number in its own list of lenses.  It's *not* stored in the EXIF as a
text string like "PENTAX FA 50mm f/1.4".  Sometimes when I've gotten a
new (modern) lens, I've had to let software authors know that a
certain number corresponds to a certain lens.

My guess is that there's no way to modify the EXIF to indicate an old
"A" lens, because those lenses were never assigned an ID number.
