NAME

Image::ExifTool::Sony - Definitions for Sony EXIF maker notes

SYNOPSIS

This module is loaded automatically by Image::ExifTool when required.

DESCRIPTION

This module contains definitions required by Image::ExifTool to interpret Sony maker notes EXIF meta information.

NOTES

The Sony maker notes use the standard EXIF IFD structure, but unfortunately the entries are large blocks of binary data for which I can find no documentation. You can use "exiftool -v3" to dump these blocks in hex. I suspect they are encrypted, possibly using the same encryption algorithm as used for the RAW image data which has been broken in dcraw by Dave Coffin.
