Displaying photo metadata

A glitch in Turtle and Tiger (not verified elsewhere):
the compensation value -1/3 is displayed 1/-3. It's good for -2/3.

Please provide us with an image whose metadata includes this value, so we can test it.

Here is an example photo.
I just tested in JAlbum (right clic/Extensions/List of metadata) :
Exposure Bias Value=1/-3 EV

Interesting. This is not skin-specific. See exbias.png - it will display that way in any skin. The Windows properties seem to be OK - see winprops.png.

But I took your image and opened it in EXIF Pilot. I simply re-entered the value: -0.3. And now, it displays correctly. See exbias2.png.

Modified image attached, as well.

I have no idea what would cause this, but there must be something in that field that is upsetting the metadata extractor, which is not a jAlbum creation - it's a third-party app. Perhaps you should file a bug report with them:

Thanks for the analysis.
This problem is present with different Canon bodies that I have used for a long time. The weirdest thing is that the value -2/3 is correct.
