If you’re a photographer, use old lenses (think manual focus, manual aperture), and are a little OCD, keep reading (oh, and are using a Mac too)…
I created an app with Automator that lets you define your manual focus lenses once, and then drag image files to the app (I do it from Lightroom), pick a lens, and presto! the files' EXIF metadata is updated with the information for the lens you chose.
I find it invaluable for getting rid of the 0.0mm f/0.0 Lens in Lightroom’s metadata filter. Even using a camera that lets you set non-CPU lens data, that only sets the focal length and aperture, not the lens name itself (or zoom info, etc).
It’s free for all on github to download and customize as you please. See the github link for more information.
