--- Comment #26 from Maik Qualmann <metzping...@gmail.com> ---
Exiftool user comment decoded in RAW mode.
Your Canon:
UserComment =
Tag 0x9286 (264 bytes, undef[264]):
2098: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [................]
My Nikon:
UserComment = ASCII
Tag 0x9286 (44 bytes, undef[44]):
033c: 41 53 43 49 49 00 00 00 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 [ASCII... ]
As you can see, your Canon does not encode a charset in the user comment, even
if the comment is empty. Therefore Exiv2 decodes your user comments as "binary
comment". You could of course now say that Exiv2 should also interpret this as
an empty comment. But we can also say that Canon writes incorrect metadata in
the images. I think that it has to be solved at Exiv2 level, we can't add more
workarounds. You can disable reading the XMP user comment in the advanced
metadata settings to avoid the problem with sidecar.
