Focal length info in galleries

Can anyone explain to me why the focal length info displayed in the PR galleries are displayed as fractions?!

Example is [url=http://www.photoradar.com/photos/35032/chris-p/red-carpet-wedding]here[/url] where the focal length is listed as 520/10. It was shot at 52mm so it's right but just a bit odd!!

A large number of software packages report it that way. I'm guessing that that's how its stored in the original exif and some packages convert it to sensible numbers and some don't

It's odd as the focal length shows up "normally" in Bridge but I suppose it might be converting it.

Hi there,

This problem is due to the way the site is currebtly stripping EXIF data, it is on our list of fixes and will get sorted out though.
