lightroom question, sorting by autofocus

2010-12-08 Thread Larry Colen
I'm going over my photos from the event, and ran across a whole series of shots 
that were perfectly focused,
on the microphone.  I'd love to be able to sort photos on whether they were 
autofocused or manually focused to see if it was me, or the camera, blowing it. 
 Is there a way to do this?  I didn't see it, but could well have missed it.

Lightroom does not include the Focus Mode or any other focusing system
EXIF tokens in the EXIF metadata it displays. Probably the best thing
you can do is to use EXIFtool to extract the focusing specific
information from your image files in a list and then add it to the
image files as keywords.

(I suspect the reason they don't show it is that there are a number of
different EXIF tokens used by different manufacturers for focus
specific aspects of a capture ... it would be a fairly complex mess to
sort it out and present it in a sensible way for all camera makes and
models.)
