Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Canon DSLR Metadata?

I was under the impression that it was a plug-in architecture that manufacturers could write for, allowing for specific handling of their files. Am I wrong?

Bins under AMA will display various columns that are camera-dependent. For instance, certain columns appear with RED or P2 files, because there is a specific SDK for those formats and the AMA plug-in adheres to that SDK.
